Five children and 25 years of marriage later, it seemed as if they were the perfect family. Then Don was diagnosed with AIDS the shocking discovery of his homosexual secret. This was only the beginning of loss and heartache. Shortly after Don's death, their 18-year-old son, Nathan, died in a car crash and Nancy fell into years of personal darkness.
