As she wrote, had her son survived, he would've required a ventilator, wouldn't have been able to speak, and would've lived as a quadriplegic. She knew her son better than anyone and said that's not a condition he would've wanted.

Nathaniel's first role was in the 1996 romantic comedy "Love Is All There Is," which starred Angelina Jolie. He was also in "The Craft," but is still known to most fans from his TV roles, in soap operas but also episodes of "White Collar," "Castle," Law & Order: SVU," and "Blue Bloods."

Our condolences to his family, friends, and co-stars.
