This heartfelt and informative hour chronicles the Derks family’s first year living with quintuplets, born prematurely at 24 weeks, 3 days. After four long and sometimes harrowing months in the hospital, the quintuplets make the journey home to River Falls, Wisconsin. As newcomers to town, the quintuplets, their six-year-old sister and parents are greeted by an extraordinary outpouring of help from the local community. Donations of clothes, food and round the clock volunteers help to keep this family of eight strong. The quintuplets' medical progress is followed, as are the day-to-day challenges of bringing up five infants simultaneously.
