Diane & Rick

But as fate would have it, years later a miracle pregnancy delivered them not one baby, but two. Diane and Rick were over the moon to have twins Hope and Zack, but their dreams of being a big happy family didn’t last long when Rick was made redundant and robbed a bank in a moment of desperation. With her husband stuck in prison, Diane’s having to cope on her own with four kids, no money coming in and the bank knocking on her door.

Now after spending months apart, their relationship is becoming strained. As Rick’s release date finally approaches, Diane’s worried how he’ll fit back in to a home that’s used to being without him. She started child minding in order to save the house and hasn’t told Rick and she doesn’t know what he’ll say when he finds out.

But with the house full of kids, Diane rarely gets a minute to herself and when she does her mind’s preoccupied with her concerns over baby Hope’s development. After her traumatic delivery and the weeks she spent in Neonatal care, Diane’s anxious she’s not developing at the same speed as her twin brother and every little cough or stumble just adds to her fears.
