The birth of a child should be the happiest moment in a couple’s life. But when a doctor’s wife has twins, one of whom has Down syndrome, this physician makes the difficult decision to send one of his babies away. An attending nurse discovers his plan and intervenes, putting into motion events that will haunt the doc, his wife and his son for the next 20 years. This all-star movie features Dermot Mulroney (“The Wedding Date”), Gretchen Mol (“3:10 to Yuma”) and two-time Oscar nominee Emily Watson (“Angela’s Ashes”). Based on The New York Times best-selling novel, Memory Keeper’s Daughter by Kim Edwards.
Memory Keeper’s Daughter is an amazing movie and is one of those movies that is good as the trailer makes it seems. It starts out in 1964 with a women giving birth to twins, one healthy and one who her and her husband did not know she was having who is born with down syndrome. Her husband who is a doctor realizes that his daughter has down syndrome tells the nurse to take her to institution and they will take care of her there, but tells his wife the baby died. All this sounds shocking. but this movie shows what a different time it was back in the ’60s from the birth to how they handled mentally challenged people back then. We have come a long way since 1964, thankfully.
But back to the movie, the movie then goes on to follow both families, the doctor’s is torn apart and the nurse finds one.
The story is great with an ending that will make that will keep the movie in your memory for a long time! So tune in to Memory Keeper’s Daughter tonight at 9p on Lifetime!
I don't get why everyone is saying that Michael John's elimination on American Idol last night is so shocking. He was forgettable and hasn't done anything to stand out from the pack in a while, so what is so shocking? I guess the shocking thing is that it wasn't the Tivo predicted Syesha or why is she still there Kristy Lee Cook. How is Kristy Lee Bore still there? And when it comes to S-yawn-a I wonder if she was really got the lowest votes, but because of the Tivo story the producers overturned it and eliminated Michael Johns instead???
To me the only shocking eliminations would be either David. I think David Archulette will win American Idol; and that David Cook will be the real shock elimination and not make it to the final 3.
So are you shocked that it was Michael Johns last night or are you like me and don't care that he was eliminated?
That is 2-time Dancing with the Stars champ Julianne Hough‘s first music video for That Song in My Head, and that that song does!
Seriously not only can she dance, she can sing! I can’t wait to get her album when it comes out on May 20th. In sad news looks like she won’t be on the Dancing with the Stars tour this summer or the show next season because she will be touring with Brad Paisley which is good for her.

Uptight people are unhappy with these new ads for The CW’s Gossip Girl and maybe if they were getting some of what the Serena, Dan, Blair, Chuck and Nate were getting they wouldn’t be as upset about them!
These ads are just as sexy as Gossip Girl, so I can’t wait to see what the gang has been up and who they have been doing on April 21at!
