The parents (Priscilla Lopez, Tony Perez) of a leukemia patient (Teresa DiSpina) conceive a child in 1990 to provide a suitable bone-marrow donor.

Variety

Medical movies are nothing new but the way the action here is kept out of the hospital and the injection of realism into the script and acting makes For the Love of My Child a healthy TV experience.
