His father, David, struggles with his own helplessness, watching his family unravel as he searches for a way to connect. And Emma, Skye's younger sister, is drowning in silence, longing to be seen in a home where all the attention is focused on Skye. Told through multiple perspectives, Dear Skye is a raw, deeply moving story about family, resilience, and the unseen battles fought behind closed doors.
