“I was with one of my really dear friends, and we were cleaning up the cupboard and choosing an outfit for him for the funeral,” she remembered. “It was really a triggering moment for me because there were many things I discovered in our closet that I didn’t know. It was very alarming for me to hear that so much happened that I had no idea [about]. ”
