Joyce Smith (Chrissy Metz, This Is Us) is a loving mother who enjoys her life in a small, tight-knit town. As dramatized in Breakthrough, based on a true story, Joyce is happily married to Brian (Josh Lucas) and they are joyfully raising John (Marcel Ruiz), a bright and respectful teen son. They face a severe test, however, when John suffers a life-threatening accident, falling through an icy lake in Missouri.

In our exclusive clip, Joyce and John meet with Doctor Garrett (Dennis Haysbert), who shares his grave concerns about John's prospects for survival. Joyce then expresses her faith-based beliefs, explaining why she maintains hope for her beloved son.
