00:00That is an earth-shattering moment. I think probably at any age, but definitely when you're
00:05a 16-year-old junior in high school and you come home one day and your father is gone.
00:11And that's what happened. It was a Friday night. I'm out with my friends. I had a midnight curfew.
00:16Usually I'd come home and the lights would all be dark and I'd have to peek my head in the
00:20door of the bedroom and say, mom and dad, I'm home. And this Friday night I came home and the
00:26lights were all on. And I knew it's just this way that, you know, I think our instincts
00:32and our gut, it's like you could feel it in the air. I knew something was wrong. So, you
00:38know, that was shattering in so many ways. And I think grief is a funny thing. I think
00:44there's a lot of ways in which I have a lot of grieving to do because I think I tried to
00:50just move forward and I did, but it changed everything for me.
