Here is the story of William and Barbara Christopher and their son Ned, an autistic child. While Bill was playing a poignantly funny role of Father Mulcahy in the popular TV-show M*A*S*H only those close to him knew the private drama he was living at home. From the first painful recognition of a problem, through the agonizing search for answers, the Christophers tell of years of frustration, jostled between hope and despair and how, in the words of Bill Christopher, they "somehow managed to have a lot of fun along the way."
