Description
Dr. Marie Heaton is an anesthesiologist at the height of her profession.
She has lived and breathed her career since medical school, and she now practices at a top Seattle hospital. But a child's death on the operating table forces Marie to explain the nightmarish disaster and face the resulting malpractice suit. Simultaneously, Marie is faced with a quieter crisis within her family, as her aging father's sight deteriorates, leaving Marie responsible for his care. As her carefully structured life begins to collapse, Marie confronts questions of love and betrayal, family bonds and the price of her own choices.
Set against the natural splendor of Seattle, and inside the closed vaults of hospital operating rooms, Oxygen climaxes in a final twist that is as heartrending as it is redeeming.
