Imagine if a new disease suddenly began to kill off some of the healthiest young people in your community. Starting with flu-like symptoms, it soon escalates and kills its victims within hours.

In the spring of 1993, a young Navajo couple and their infant son were just beginning their life together when unexpectedly and unannounced, tragedy struck.
