What if you could place your newborn into cryo-suspension until it was more convenient to bring him or her home?
In an Austin, Texas Postponement Center, Nora Collins helps parents make the controversial choice to cryogenically preserve their newborns until the time is more convenient to bring them home. But for a woman past child-bearing years, watching over frozen babies becomes more than just a job—it becomes an obsession that forces Nora to confront her own past decisions.
