Tru's Bio

After witnessing the shooting death of her own mother at the age of twelve, Tru was left with a haunting emotional hole in her heart as well as the constant guilt as to whether or not she could have done anything to stop it.

Ten years later, Tru finds herself thrown into the role of mother to trying to keep some form of her family together. Being the middle child, Tru is constantly looking out for her reckless, but lovable younger brother, Harrison as well as her overly ambitious, older sister, Meredith.

In addition to her personal life, Tru is trying to recognize her own professional ambitions of getting into medical school and becoming a doctor. When Tru's internship at a hospital is cut due to lack of funding, Tru is forced to take a less desirable one-in the city morgue.

Not particularly happy about her new job (or the fact that she has been put on the "graveyard shift"), Tru makes the best of it--not knowing at first that this seemingly entry-level internship will eventually transform her life forever.

Over the course of the series, Tru will be in a constant struggle to understand this unique gift she has been given while trying to balance it with her desire to live the life of a normal twenty-two year-old woman. Tru's natural intuitiveness and resourcefulness will be put to the test as she constantly sacrifices precious moments of her own life to save the lives of others.
