This wasn't my favorite of the series, but also wasn't the worst. 
I enjoyed the view into the life of a single parent with a chronically ill child, and how exhausting it is mentally, emotionally, monetarily, and physically on the family. I would also lose my sense of self if I juggled a 9-5 to pay off medical bills, all while juggling a child with CF. I would eat-sleep-breathe my child and their needs, just like the hero did. I love this little found family in CO and how loving they are to one another, and I so wished they were introduced to this family so much sooner than when they did. They would have helped. 
I think once the heroes just TALKED to one another, so much of their conflicts and issues were solved, this was a big miscommunication trope, but I also get how the BPD and single parent mentalities could put up walls from having that open communication. They were a good fit for one another, and I loved how in our little tattoo boy was, and how sweet he was with the daughter.
