So you grew up then, Sita, in a family that was Baha'i.

How much of your life at home centred around the faith?

What sense of God did you have in all those prayers?

Did you have an idea of who you were praying to?

What sort of entity or being?

Were there many other Baha'i in Toowoomba?

Your sister Rani was closest in age to you.

Did the two of you share a room?

How did your aunts, your mum's three sisters, help support the family in the aftermath of your sister's death?

You've mentioned what an important figure your grandma was in the house.

How did your relationship with her change as you became a teenager?
