After being together for 24 tumultuous years, Wayne and Marilyn had a bomb dropped on their marriage during Christmas 2003: Cancer. This would prove to be the final siege on their embattled lives together. It was a war against which they had no weapons. Once so virile, handsome, and strong, Wayne was diagnosed with brain lymphoma at the age of 54. They were baby boomers who thought they were invincible. Devastating illness was something reserved for others: the unhip, "normal" folks. Until the moment that would shatter their illusions, they had a relationship defined by upheaval: the madness of alcoholism and subsequent recovery, divorce and remarriage, and the parenting of two children when they were so childlike themselves. From the beginning of their journey together---from grief to acceptance--they had a deeply passionate yet unexplainable and unbreakable bond. This is their story.
