But then, a young nurse's aide, Lena Canada (Raffin), becomes deeply involved in Karen's rehabilitation. Over the protests of her superior, Dr. Bell (Michael Learned), Lena devotes herself to bringing the child out of her shell. Eventually Karen finds an outlet for her emotions through a surprising pen pal - Elvis Presley. An incredible tale of personal triumph, Touched By Love will both move and inspire you.
