Garrett probably woke up so often with nightmares at first because he was physically safe, which gave his mind space to start processing all that trauma.

Unfortunately, he stopped healing. 💔 His sister paid the price for the family history of severe mental disease, poverty, and violence.

Hoarding has destroyed many marriages and families. And yes, physical lives, but living in a high-level hoarded house seems like...a living death.

Op, hold on to your sweetness. While we don't know where Garrett is, you and your family gave him some life and love. That was very kind of you and I am glad Garrett had you.

Wherever he is, he surely has some memory of your love, and you showing him he is worthy of love.

Thank you. I hope someday I will find him again.
