Mon présent

S1 E20
·
2017

While the dance troupe anxiously awaits the start of the competition, Jenny waits at the hospital. Even though she receives confirmation that it was the side effects of chemo that brought her down and not a relapse, there's no reason to completely shout for joy: the doctor refuses to see her leave without medical supervision and wants to keep her under observation. All efforts to be at the Reprezent grand finale despite the illness seem to have been destroyed. On a day off, her nurse Nathalie agrees to accompany her. But once there, the energy seems lacking. With the encouragement of her friends and especially the presence of Charles, Jenny finds the strength to follow her dream. Even though cancer has disrupted her life forever, Jenny wants more than ever to live in the moment to the fullest, savoring one second at a time.
