She committed suicide when she was 39 years old and I was 16.

She shot my stepfather in front of me.

A lot of in that house that we lived in, I think there I saw the house a few months ago, by the way.

I think there are nine bullets in the walls and floor of that house that I can account for.

Probably still there.

And so while I'm describing this to you dispassionately, it's because of two things.

The distance in terms of time, but most of all because of healing.
