I spent time then trying to advise the children of other people who were going through the same experience that I'd gone through on how to navigate it correctly.

And you just learn a lot about the world and you see that

You know, in life, everything could get taken from you, your status, your money, your friends.

I saw that certain people were very disloyal to my father at the time, who he thought were friends.

It was only a handful, but again, I learned from those people, how can I be a true friend to people?

How can I be better?

And I learned a tremendous amount through that experience.

The way I interpreted it at the time, and those were very, very memorable words, and it occurred.

I was down after I picked up my father from the arraignment.

I drove him down.

I drove the car, and my father and I are very, very close, and he didn't say a word for the whole time.

And I think he was processing, number one, what was happening to him, and I couldn't even imagine anything.

But I actually think the bigger pain for him, because my father is such a committed person to the family, is like, did I let my family down?

Did I let my kids down?

And I do think he felt at that moment like his life was over.

He couldn't really see past that.

what this challenge was going to bring and if there would be a life for him after it.

So I could see that he had a lot of fear and he really wasn't saying much.

And then I didn't know what to do.

And so I just stood by him and stood close.
