Jodi Graham knows that this is more than the “baby blues” she is feeling, but just before she slides completely into postpartum psychosis she comes up with an unconventional solution. She takes a job as a long-haul truck driver while her husband takes over full-time care of their son.

Morning Star is based on Danna Hobart’s real life struggle through postpartum depression/psychosis.
