Directed by Christy Montour-Larson

This theatrical and soul searching play tells the journey a family faced with impossible decisions and explores the boundaries of medical ethics and what it means to be "normal". Mary and Tom are surprised to learn not only are they going to be parents, they are going to have twins. When they discover that their children have a life threatening condition, they agonize over what is best for their family. Can they allow one of their babies to die, even to save the life of another?
