It's one thing to find out you're pregnant when you aren't expecting it. It's another thing altogether to find out you're having quadruplets.

Ashley Ness is a true inspiration when it comes to handling the challenges of motherhood. During the pandemic, Ashley received the unexpected news that she was pregnant with quadruplets - a one in 10 million occurrence. With three children already at home, Ashley's life took a dramatic turn.  Ashley's journey includes spending seven months in the NICU with one of her babies, Chesley May, who sadly passed away. Her strength and unwavering dedication to her children is truly remarkable. Join us as we delve into Ashley's story and learn valuable lessons about resilience, balancing work and family, and finding the confidence to handle more than we ever thought possible. You'll also hear directly from the unexpected hero who helps Ashley take care of her brood.

Making tough decisions for a medically complex child
Parents of medically complex children often face hard decisions, something Ashley experienced with her daughter Chesley May. These decisions can include seeking aggressive medical interventions or prioritizing the child's quality of life. Listening to what their child communicates physically and emotionally plays a crucial role, even when the message leads to heart-wrenchingly tough decisions.
