Childbirth isn't an illness, so under normal circumstances, insurance won't cover it. Delivery staff doesn't cure disease or treat injuries, so there's no need for a doctor...unless, of course, circumstances aren't normal. This smash-hit drama gives a look into the lives of the men and women who work to welcome 1,000,000 new lives into the world each year in Japan. Includes four arcs: Doorstep Mother, Threatened Miscarriage, Gonorrhea and On Call.
In Neonatal Intensive Care, this series’ longest story to date, discover the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit—the NICU for short. It’s where children born premature, underweight or with congenital diseases go for 24/7 treatment. All told, about one in every 33 children are treated at the NICU…while they can never have enough sickbeds, staff or resources, the neonatologists who work at the NICU find themselves fighting around the clock for their little patients.
