Bob Cratchit and his family benefited most from Scrooge's change of tune--but what happened after the goose was given, and Scrooge resolved to turn over a new leaf?Tim Cratchit's Christmas Carol shows us Tiny Tim as an adult. Having recovered from his childhood ailment, he began his career helping the poor but has since taken up practice as a doctor to London's wealthy elite. Though Tim leads a very successful life, he comes home at night to an empty house. But this holiday season, he's determined to fill his house with holiday cheer--and maybe even a wife. When a single, determined young mother lands on Tim's doorstep with her ailing son, Tim is faced with a choice: stay ensconced in his comfortable life and secure doctor's practice, or take a leap of faith and reignite the fire lit under him by his mentor, Scrooge, that fateful Christmas so many years ago.
