Talk:Nathan West (Ryan Paevey)/@comment-208.81.157.114-20140317212955

I have my reservations there is more to his story. For one I think he is Silas' son, he just doesn't know it. Medical school is long and hard. Nina paid for his schooling which means they had been together for quiet while. Silas made it sound like they were married though all of it (medical school). they say the average married couple get pregnant within the first few years of the marriage even the couples trying not to get pregnant. So 10-12 years of medical plus however long after that before he meant Ava they could have gotten pregnant. That would explain why Madeline is so fixated Nathan keeping his identity from Silas. They could have given the boy to her parents, so that he could focus on school. It may explain these two very different sides of Nina. It sounds like she was depressed and suicidal around Silas and happy and hopeful around Nathan. Yes it is true that there are good and bad times with depression, but you would think there would be some crossover. Nathan being her son could explain why she was so depressed to begin with, it has to be hard to give a child up no matter situation add a little postpartum depression to the mix and you can understand why Silas thought she tried to kill herself.
