The Lights Around the Shore

"When grumpy 75-year-old Charlie Messina wakes from a coma after a cardiac event on Cape Cod, he is told that he was only unconscious for a few days. However, Charlie knows he has spent the last several months living through a parallel life that lies ahead of him. Which includes a personal tragedy, an unlikely awkward friendship with two local boys, and a road trip with his playboy best friend from college and a dog that no one else sees (except the children). When he shares his story about the life he lived, his wife and grown sons think he's crazy. He then realizes he must play along with his family-and the geriatric psychiatrist-or they'll be convinced he's suffering from dementia and will put him into a home for "dribblers and droolers.""--
