Everything in her life seems to go well until she is diagnosed with a terminal disease.

Pahiram Ng Isang Umaga revolves around Juliet (Vilma Santos) who finds herself struggling against an ever-escalating series of problems. A determined single parent, she manages to raise a child while remaining successful in her career as an advertising executive. Everything in her life seems to go well until she is diagnosed with a terminal disease. For her son's sake and without revealing her condition, she is forced to resolve her most important relationships, first renewing her connections with her parents and then with her son's father. In the twilight of her life, she meets and falls in love with beleaguered artist Ariel (Eric Quizon) who is constantly depressed and perpetually contemplating suicide.
