After twelve years confined to a single room by the M.E. monster, Jessica Taylor-Bearman begins to see her dreams come true. She is pregnant.

Yet motherhood brings new challenges. Jessica must navigate life as a disabled mom in an often inaccessible world while facing critics who question her abilities. As if that were not enough, the pandemic strikes just as her family relocates to a new county. Isolation takes on a different meaning as they adjust to life as a family of three in a small apartment, constrained by government restrictions and the constant fear of COVID-19.

Balancing parenthood with chronic illness and confronting the gap between expectations and reality, Jessica discovers that alternative fairy-tale endings are possible, and that life can exist beyond closed doors.
