Set against the backdrop of a small-town Wisconsin NICU, a sweeping story of parenthood, family, and redemption
After a decade of miscarriages, Brooke Jensen is finally pregnant--with quadruplets. When she goes into labor after twenty-three weeks, Brooke and her husband rush to the hospital in the small town of Hanover, Wisconsin. For the 203 days that follow, they're plunged into the terrifying and mysterious netherworld of the neonatal intensive care unit. As the babies grow and struggle, fall turns to stark upper-Midwest winter. Brooke bonds with Dash, a senior nurse whose son, Landon, had been a patient in the NICU years earlier and is now straining his parents' abilities to care for him. Both families bend and edge closer to breaking, and the questions mount: What does love look like? What does it mean to save a life? A fiercely honest portrait of American parenthood, the American healthcare system, and Rust Belt communities, Everything We Could Do lays bare the ways that families are formed and remade in times of crisis.Author Biography
