Now as he is about to turn the big four-O, someone told his employer at the architectural firm where he has worked for fifteen years that David has AIDS and he is fired. Muriel, his wife seems to be drifting away and he thinks he is trying too hard to live vicariously through his two sons and their little league team. Then when a close friend who also has hemophilia and is HIV positive, commits suicide David begins to feel the hopelessness of the predicament. But he has never learned how to quit, and does the only thing he can think of, he starts over. With the help of a psychologist who David thinks is a bit out of touch, he begins to rebuild his life again.
