When Lightning Struck in a Hospital Chapel
Three weeks after winning one of the most improbable Senate races in American history, Joe Biden stood in a hospital chapel, his world shattered. His wife Neilia and infant daughter Naomi were dead. His two young sons lay in hospital beds with broken bodies. At 29, he'd just become one of the youngest senators ever elected, yet none of it mattered anymore. The promise of public service-the romantic notion planted at his grandfather's kitchen table in Scranton-felt like a cruel joke. This is where Biden's story truly begins: not with political triumph, but with devastating loss and the question of whether promises matter when everything falls apart. December 18, 1972. Biden was in Washington interviewing staff when the call came. A tractor-trailer had hit Neilia's car while she was Christmas shopping with their three children. Beau and Hunter survived with serious injuries. Neilia and baby Naomi didn't. In one moment, everything Biden had built-the perfect family, the bright future, the sense that hard work and integrity led somewhere good-disintegrated. His rage was volcanic. He walked seedy neighborhoods at night with his brother, looking for fights. No prayer offered comfort. Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield called the hospital daily, trying to engage him in Senate business, but Biden was ready to abandon his career before it started. Finally, Mansfield made a simple request: "Give me six months, Joe." Biden agreed-six months, no more.
