And...

That's the hardest thing and the most helpful thing in one because it's almost lying to ourselves or lying to others saying it will go away one day is actually worse because then you're just waiting for that day.

You said that there was a part of you that obviously took a break, obviously after all of this.

And the only reason you went back was to experience some normal normalcy and, you know, just getting into some routine and rhythm for your life, which is always encouraged when, when people go through difficult things to feel just like you're moving your body, you're, you know, helping yourself, you're going back to doing things that, that felt familiar.

How hard was it to even go back to doing that?

I've never had that experience around what you're saying around the news teams and the helicopters.

Is there a sense of setting boundaries in that way?

Can you be like, don't come?

It feels so invasive.

It just feels... It's almost like this is a really tough, tragic time for someone.

And I just don't understand why that would... Yeah, it's fascinating to me how we as humans have normalized that.

Yeah.

When people talk about or commentate on events that they don't have the full details over or the actual insight over from the inside, what were the kind of things you were hearing that were hurtful and kind of dehumanizing to some degree as well?

Because when someone's far away from the problem but commentating on it without understanding it, what were the things that you were hearing or things that you saw that really affected you?

The part that really connected or resonated at least with me was this idea that you're already beating yourself up enough inside and you're already hurting enough inside that there's nothing anyone could say to you that could supersede that personal blame and personal responsibility or pain that you're putting on yourself when you've gone through something like you have and that...

What else would you like people who may be filling in the gaps with their own commentary or as you said, allowed to have their opinion and what would you like to say to them?

What would you like them to know from your perspective?

When you say it took you eight months to even accept that this was what tragically took his life, what were you wrestling with?

What were you grappling with in order to accept that?

What does that look like?
