Nathan Boos grew up knowing he had been adopted at birth, and while his adoptive parents always knew the names of his biological mother and father, they never really spoke about them in detail.
Nathan had a very happy childhood and was content with life despite the fact he had no knowledge about his blood relatives.
His biological parents made the difficult decision to place him for adoption because they were very young and couldn't afford to raise a child or provide the basic necessities. His biological mother chose his adoptive parents based on the fact they were distant cousins who lived in a nearby town.
Years passed by, and Nathan grew up to become a truck driver for a company based in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin.

One day in 2018, his adoptive mom happened to notice Nathan was Facebook friends with his biological father! She told him about her discovery, then scrolled through his friends list until she pointed his dad out on the computer screen.
Nathan looked at the photo, stared at the man's face for a little bit, and stood there frozen in shock.
As it turned out, Nathan had spent the last two years becoming quite close to his birth father… without even knowing it.
