Vernon was twenty-one, handsome, kind, fun-loving and Christian, and he was stealing my heart.
Thus began a love story that would evolve over the next twenty-three years through the blessing of five children and the sadness of living with a tragic, hereditary disease.
That disease would continue to impact our family for more than fifty years.
This story is a personal one.
It is a story of deep sorrow mingled with the joy that comes from family, love, commitment, and faith.
