No lie. Like nonstop, with periods of intense levels of bawling. I avoided watching it for years because I knew it would hit too close to home (my mom was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in 2000 and passed 10 years later in 2010, well after the doctors thought she would. Well last night I finally worked up the strength to watch it and I'm so glad I did. Mandy Moore as Jamie Sullivan could not be any more cute, sweet, or innocent. This movie will stick with me for awhile.
