At the beginning of summer, on the eve of a follow-up visit with the oncologist, Jenny's family is stressed. Unfortunately, the next day, the results of the medical tests are not what Jenny had hoped for.

Jenny has a strange dream in which her doppelganger convinces her not to give up. Jenny concludes that by taking up running, she will develop the strength needed to overcome her challenges. A bad decision with serious consequences.

Jenny spends her days alone, thinking only about her leukemia. Until a somewhat rebellious neighbor, Blue, enters her life. This is Jenny's chance to invent a life without the disease, where she is nicknamed Dragon.

Jenny wants everything to be perfect for the visit of Charles, her lover from Rimouski, whom she met at the hospital. The day is beautiful, until Charles reveals some news that she will find difficult to take.

Since Charles's visit, Jenny hasn't heard from him. While her friends try to cheer her up, Blue discovers that Jenny isn't the Dragon she claimed to be. Blue feels betrayed.

Jenny's family receives a visit from a massage therapist, a precious moment for Jenny and Filou. But today, Jenny insists that her father enjoy it too. She finds him too preoccupied, and it worries her.

In an effort to bring Nathalie and her father closer together, Jenny secretly invites Nathalie to a backyard camping party. The evening goes well until Jenny learns some shocking news.

Charles refuses to let Jenny come see him, and she doesn't know why. A basement party with her friends is organized to take her mind off things, but alcohol and a Ouija board disrupt the party and their friendships.

Jenny reluctantly meets Anna, a psychologist. She doesn't see how a stranger can understand her. Anna explains how they can move forward together. But what happens next is up to Jenny.

Flo and Jenny haven't spoken since the end of the party that went wrong. Neither dares to make the first move. Blue, who would like to be Jenny's new BFF, wants to take advantage of the situation.

Despite Charles's reluctance, Jenny decides to visit him at the hospital. But "Lucie" and the rule-bound nurse are ready to make things difficult for her.

Finally! Jenny has finished her treatment. She had been looking forward to this day so much. But instead of jumping for joy, she is overcome with anxiety. It's scary not to be monitored anymore. What if it's not really over?

Jenny suffers from panic attacks. Her therapist tells her that she will be able to control them better if she discovers what triggers them and finds a reassuring image to visualize. Jenny has an idea that is far from unanimous.

Jenny feels like a magnetic storm is about to wreak havoc on Earth. Her father is at the end of his tether, Filou is showing disturbing symptoms, and Jenny senses that disaster is looming.
