Answer:
Based on the book by Aimee Bender. Math whiz Mona Gray has elected to systematically withdraw from life after a mysterious illness leaves her DAD all but a shell of his former self.

Years later, Mona teaches the subject, and does her best to help her students contend with their own personal crises.
