Nicholas is born 100 days early and weights one pound. His heart is the size of a cashew. His statistical chance of survival is %.00004.
Nicholas goes through medical procedure after medical procedure – because science and medicine “can” keep a fetus alive. But at what price do we hold onto life?
little man is the story of how a micro-preemie brought a family to its knees. A story of a baby’s struggle for life, and of his parents struggle to keep their family from disintegrating under the unrelenting stress and chaos of hospitals, emergency medical crisis and a crushing blow to trust.
