Jasmine Harman's Extreme Hoarders: Secret Lives & Shame | Biggest Hoarders | Only Human

I'm Jasmine Harmon and I've lived with my mother's compulsive hoarding all my life I'm telling you I'm keeping those if there isn't with your agreement then we have to fall out with help my mom's made huge improvements and now I want to help other hoarders around the country who are living in terrible conditions I'm feeling desperate because I can't open it this isn't me this isn't me living like this hey I'm shocked it's literally a wall of these are people who have lost their homes and lives to hoarding it's going to feel like you can't make it and that's totally normal do you want to spend the rest of your years with this hanging over you sorry I want hoarders up and down the country to realize they aren't alone get rid you can't say that's a good decision you've made I'm really proud of you oh and that with the right help their lives can improve - really good to have my space back look what I have found the things that I've found that I never actually knew that I had I've got something wrong with me which lots of other people have got and it can be cured [Music] this year hoarding disorder has been recognized as a distinct psychological condition despite the official recognition families like mine are still living with the shame and secrecy of hoarding up to 3 million people are suffering and there are few places they can turn for help 87 year old olive has lived in this 3-bedroom semi-detached council house in Brighton since 1933 her home is so full that she's forced to spend most of her day outside compared to throw away anything that can be recycled I might see it lying about on the road and pick it up and bring it back if I want you to pray and I saw a decent friend you know bring it that I don't hold I keep stuff that will be used again the inside of olives house is full to the brim with thousands of plastic bags old furniture and clothes it's all aluminium she can't cook or use the bathroom at home so gets her meals from the community center where she also washes I want it sorted out so be able to live in it I mean it's a place that you can invite anybody in because you can't get in there Toby where's your ball Oh somebody's taking that taking it and recycle it that's free expect [Music] I'd come across olive in newspaper articles about the various battles she's had over her recycling they mentioned that the interior of the house was also badly hoarded she's agreed to meet me but I don't know how she'll receive me [Music] doing we are recycling yes it's about such a muddle from the wind last night and this was normally in a broader Oliver's never married or had children so has no family to support her she has only limited sight and is registered blind do you spend a lot of time here at home no not now I'm a UH place at the time have to be out I've got no music okay hot water you've got hot water no it's all cut off so turned off how would you feel about showing me around inside a little bit well you couldn't you couldn't you couldn't go in there because I don't know what it's like what do you mean well I've not been able to go in the since all this was piled up but you you sleep inside oh cool shot yeah I've got a baton or three back stairs yeah Olive believes a move into temporary accommodation 13 years ago lies at the heart of her problems she feels that when she was moved back home the council failed to put her possessions back properly and this ultimately created the current chaos the Mets nothing to do with recycling no that's the council although Olive is reluctant to let anyone see inside her house she agrees to let me have a look behind the door to see the scale of the problem oh hello who's that who is it who is it not one minute not inside so again no I don't want you to go in there no I was just seeing if I could have a look no no I don't want you to go in there right almost immediately I find just how sensitive olive is about strangers seeing inside her house hello what's an either devil that was Connie you won't be a minute that's all right I don't know how she gets in out in there it's literally a wall of stuff hey I'm shocked first it's definitely worse than my mom's house everyone can I ask you or live you know would getting into your house more easily Oh be important to you I don't like leave it in that turn it's like a model really okay couldn't be happy could you hi Molly you couldn't be happy of his whole cat that's too you know yeah but what about poor you 87 years old climbing well it keeps me fit Olive has lived in this house virtually all of her life but now she's unable to access most of the rooms due to her hoarding each night she literally climbs over a wall of clutter to get to bed the only way to access her home will be to somehow get the hallway emptied and sorted into a separate space I was thinking if you take some stuff out if we could create a space outside where things could be kept dry we could do some sorting outside maybe I want to get it clear then I get it cleared yeah it's been really nice to meet ya thank you for letting me have a peek inside I will see you soon come up no it's all right bye Toby say bye-bye bye-bye [Music] I just cannot get my head around it it's more hoarded if that makes sense than any other house that I've seen it seems like I'm on the backfoot with it before I've even started she's deep down very ashamed of the inside of the house and scared because she hasn't been into the kitchen all the back room or even the front room for years she doesn't know what's there the only one that's been through there is the cat so God knows what's through there I've been contacted by someone whose experience of hoarding reminds me very much of my own in South London Vicki and her brother have lived with their mum Janet's hoarding since they were small in here's my mum's room in their three-bedroom maisonette the family squeeze through Janet's piles of possessions trying to live a normal life Vicki is a full-time student who looks after the household finances and works 12 hours a week in a part-time job even if I had a friend to say oh we would like to come around to your house I would actually like told them on my mum's busy like she doesn't want anyone in the house or try and make up lies like who would wanna bring someone here it's embarrassing embarrassing I used to be too ashamed to invite people to my haunted house when I was growing up so I decide to I was not even allowed to clear up my own possession and if I threw something out in the bin if I had no take it and if you don't love you just cry I mean what kind of thing do you think would be helpful for your mum support in what kind of spin in terms of like counseling that's the main thing so she can realize just helpful support in terms of banner Vicki's mom Janet arrived in England from Nigeria almost 25 years ago she has limited English and is being treated for depression like many hoarders she's become very used to living in chaos so is this where you you spend most of your time John in here not really where do you spend your time and when you're indoors you sit in bedroom your bedroom because I'm so far from depression are you alright with having me here yes what do you think do you think there's anything that could help you feel better oh let's see how it goes I need help oh well hopefully we can help okay we can help Janet's house has hundreds of suitcases full of clothes and materials from Nigeria she also hoards blankets duvets and childhood toys so this is your mom's room is it yep so she just has a little bit of the bed to sleep on Wow she used to have more space than that this is kind of similar to my mum's bedroom when she you know she used to just have a little bit of the bed that was available all the rest of everything around was piled up and then it went up into the corner but right up to the ceiling and then it spread and spread this is my room okay not all of it is my stuff okay so you add to the tables I didn't it was so much clearer before but how's that gonna be asked to talk anymore this is an area if we're gonna try and do some stuff in the house maybe we could do your room that's what I thought at first so she can set example look at this we love and could be like that do you know when you live with something you stop seeing you stop noticing and I think that is very true of hoarding so you live with it all around you and you stop seeing it [Music] Janet's hoarding is causing massive pressure in the family home the way Janet's house is right now is the way my mom's house was when I lived at home and after I left home it got a lot worse than that that could happen in exactly the same way with this family as it did with my family if it's left unchecked [Music] a couple of weeks after first meeting her I'm going to see olive in Brighton again to see if she really is ready to change Olive has agreed to let us put up a large tent outside where the stuff from her hallway can be sorted I've asked Andy honey who has worked with extreme hoarders before to help you straight down into the wall video oh yeah on the side yeah so do you want me to I'll be getting a few bits ready yeah yeah yeah you know leisurely pace like this but I can do allof appears to be really motivated to get things moving and much happier allowing me to go inside but what confronts me is even more daunting than last time do you know what a live yeah it's even higher than it was before oh yeah because I'll say through to the kitchen I've got food stuff in there too the kitchen and then I can't see unless I'm wrong no all I can say is that I could have thrown stuff up there with the scale of the task even bigger than I thought I'm keen to get olive clearing so did you want to start getting some stuff out while it's nice and dry and sunny and not wait not really first off I've got to leave some recycling out tonight and and so I must do that what have you got dude make sure it's a no Tim oh yeah long process why not really Oliver's recycled since the war and has been in conflict with the authorities about it for decades my worry is that her constant recycling is distracting her from clearing this routine of the recycling is what I live does day in doubt but it's definitely partially avoidance what she's got at home the rest of that is all tin oh oh is it Alton hmm yeah yeah it's all Tim Oh Griffin yeah spit right I'm just getting a bit slightly anxious about the fact that it's gonna get dark and we won't have been able to get much done if it's in the hallway oh yeah well like a long long Olaf has a vast amount of recycling to sort through it's mostly tins and packaging she picks up from the street everything about getting started in the hall oh it's gonna get started so do it right I don't know I think so and I thought I had three yes of course I can't exactly paint that is partly phone cut so you couldn't take out the food I just leave it because I know I know what's there yeah I'll leave it with your other bag that's got to stay as it is yeah leave that as always once olive finally gets around to some clearing it's at a very leisurely pace I found me breakfast cereal looking for a week oh if you want me to go in I can see I mean instead of you know no I'd rather do it because I know I mean I know l-step stuff okay so I'll get some more paperwork if you want we're nearing the end of getting this stuff out here because it's all falling down I think that if if she would let you or me go in and move Wow yeah obviously we could do it in a day and I can leg it that wasn't four words I bought a sack bar down when they as well yeah so cuz she's got loads of box in that front room good it's the whole way that we're gonna go : hello so you fed up hey are you fed up babe okay alright come on over look at the ten point it's too dark okay that's your paperwork there so far paperwork there doesn't look so much now does it anyway I'm going in I'm not stopping there it's cold well that's what I was worried about that's why I thought it'd be better to do it indoors hmm one day in an olives hallway looks largely unchanged Oh God [Music] there was a vinegars year when the stuff was hit tooth on this I leave her climbing the mountain of rubbish to get to bed do the stairs clear there it's just [Music] I'm back in South London to see Janet and I immediately sense the tension upstairs how you getting on with Victoria you told I start screaming shouting on my head to be this morning she starts shouting again have you been arguing since I've been gone away no we go for a while until today I'm teacher - you started vicki has been to the council to sort out Janet's rent narrowly avoiding eviction for the family and missing her University course in the process sometimes you say things that you mean in the moment yeah okay I've asked dr. Caroline Wells a clinical psychologist specializing in hoarding and family issues who I've worked with before to come and talk to them I want to see if she can help the family build some bridges Vicki what about you what was it like for you it's been very frustrating like living here but then you want to move out then you want to stay because you're worried that if you move out things will be worse or that's that's how I feel I'm only living here because I don't want things to go worse and I'm trying to help you but you don't even see that I'm helping you like I had to miss uni today just to sort out that's better only reason why I was shouting because you don't listen to what I was saying maybe at first so I don't shout at first but then when you carry on listening that's when my temper goes hi out don't you want me but you can't move why she wants to move to a bigger house that's what she said she said he wants to live in a bigger house because there's no space in here but then at the same time this house is really big so you sort of think even if you had a bigger house your mum would fill it anyway yeah I'm wondering if there is something or a way that you would like to be helped either by Vicki or by someone else or you know demo to me exactly that's the point I'm trying to say if I leave who is going to help you if I leave who's going to help pay the stuff or even support you in trying to sort out your house and stuff that's what I always say to you that's why I'm still here being amongst the tension which hoarding brings to any household really takes me back to my own childhood and the stress I felt with my mum I mean I don't know how you keep a brave face on her old stuff before I used to think that fact over the years I used to fake my mom hated we ate the thing she never loved me right because she's definitely like hooked real good work she's always saying negative stuff but over the years I started to understand a research I've like realized that she does I won't be clothed I won't be sheltered I mean I remember those I was living at home I'd get so frustrated my mom would have screaming matches you know we'd have massive crowds she would pay me I would blame her but she's still my mum she's still your mom oh it's just so frustrating and you can see how frustrating is for Vikki this is hurting her and gosh the whole thing today like the route that they had 50 was trying to prevent them from being evicted she is the parent in this situation and those kind of things used to happen all the time to me Vicky's strained home life brings back so many memories of my own upbringing my mum filled our five bedroom house to the brim with her possessions throughout my childhood but with a lot of help she's made amazing progress and this year is the first time in a decade we can celebrate Christmas with her in her home Lee the fact that we can all go there we can sit around a table and have Christmas dinner as a family there I couldn't have even imagined that you know if you had said to me three years ago or four years ago that we'd be doing this out of laughs my mom's been working really hard to get things ready for us all to go round there and you know this is something special I really want mom to understand just how proud I am of the journey she's made to this point of her to enjoy the day with her family I just think that you've done amazingly well look at this house compared to what it was like I mean can you remember what it was like a year and a half ago or two years ago we wouldn't even been able to stand here have you missed any of that stuff that's gone have you what you things that I remember nothing oh I want to look at that now have you been bringing more stuff in a better house oh yeah but not so much stuff and I have got rid of some are you able to deal with it best for them sometimes but not on time for cooking classes three-course dinner master class that's lovely thank you very much at least that won't takes up space exactly enjoying Christmas with mum like this really gives me hope that Vicky and Janet and olive might be able to do the same in their homes one day now I'd say this is almost normal almost wants to be almost clear let's put it that way yeah [Music] as the winter begins to bite in Brighton Olive is still working with me and Andy at her own pace to move her horde from the hallway so she can access her living room and kitchen as ever she wants to make sure she checks every single item [Music] that bag was falling apart so I'll put it in another bag for you oh is that Alright okay okay it's a bit wet though although Oliver's vetting everything that leaves the hall the fact that she's open to letting me in shows how much progress she's made which one's going in one at a time that's a bag of clothes here we go check this another bag after many weeks of working with her I realize how huge this whole process is for her it made a little bit of headway now and we're trying to get through that way I've managed to get quite a lot off the top and get through there but it looks to be honest let me see if I can reach it looks no I can't quite reach pretty full back there as well my big worry is that I don't think all it's going to be able to let much go I mean maybe she'll come round but right now she still wants to keep everything it's a lot to do today given any opportunity Olive will always return to her first love of recycling her biggest thrill is when she can exchange her tin for money which she gives to charity so when Andy offers to take a load of cans to the recycling plant she jumps at the chance oh thank god I'm gonna get rid of those college started her recycling when she was in the Navy during the war when make do and mend was a way of life you had a hundred sixty five kilo good gracious oh good and you're buying this something for this is Johns Ambulance for the homeless yes thank you very much so all days hard work has been rewarded because they now being recycled raising money from her recycling is what keeps olive out in freezing temperatures in the garden painstakingly categorizing her cans whilst inside her house gets overrun filming on be good and don't let anyone come in will you sir I'm not loopy I'm not loopy and he's just someone to talk to I wanted to remind her just how much she's helping the causes she donates to and to really find out what that means to her she's been commended for her efforts at one local charity but she's never seen the plaque they put up in her honor thank you much even we come and this is where we look do we oh there you are Brighton PDS a pet aid hospital expresses sincere gratitude to Oliver Taylor he funded their pharmaceuticals throughout 2001 wow that must make you feel incredibly proud amazing yes I can't believe that I am actually from there the more time I spend with olive the more I realized just what an extraordinary life she lives I've got a I gotta climb out from a short us me there we are although she's never been married olive has told me she lost her fiance in the war if Roland hadn't got killed in the war I would have been married when I was 21 we wanted seven children and because I was an only child and they were a big family of I was seven and we didn't know anything about sex we do need that happens you see that was what 70 years ago I say well then 70 years [Music] so after Roland died you never met anybody I didn't want to know men you know moment have died and there's nobody like him you know as well when you're young and you get engaged that's well it's like and it you know [Music] by Allah my bi see it tomorrow come on tow right boys cold cold wind coming here wow I just really enjoyed hanging out with olive today she's had such a fascinating life and you just kind of think how Earth of you managed to get into this dreadful situation but then also when she was when she was talking about her fiance who died but she never found anyone quite like him and what's going through my mind when she's saying that it's my god that is a massive hole in your life that you're trying to fill with all this stuff [Music] in South London Vicki is managing to keep her mum's hoarding out of her bedroom while dr. Caroline Wells is working more practically with Janice in the rest of the house Janet you can are you gonna keep that a void can we make space by by giving that to charity show put your finger in the chart show yeah okay fantastic look at all that space you've just made it's really good despite some progress as the sessions continue the same old wounds are quickly opened between mother and daughter how do you feel that we progress along that God you feel you've got a bit more space to dance around if you in my room yes what's it like seeing seeing that he's written like this just thanks yeah are you happy for her to have to have this room or does it make you feel a bit uneasy ladies yeah now I understand that in order for her to to be able to UM tidy or get rid of some of this stuff is to do it together so if if you'll help you clear stuff if you want how to Caroline she can be down a knock and she can help you you know if you want to do it by yourself that's fine or if you want to do by yourself want me to do it then I seen your face already so you don't want to do it I just find it really difficult sorry can't do it hmm what reverse yes [Music] don't you think about listening to he sort of saying that she hmm you know wants to communicate with you and have a relationship it's tricky isn't it I'm gonna go and see if she's okay okay Wow okay it's tricky to talk about huh yeah that's why it's so hot it's very complicated because you don't want to I don't want to turn out like this I don't want to be living like this [Music] plastic yeah no peep rid of it at Olive's two months in and despite checking everything she's making good progress well it's been slow and steady so it's doing it olives way because but she's not happy to tell you what it go and you think they're off so but we are getting there - we've lost a Tina tuna we've lost it in the tuna its marmalade there that can be used July 1998 all right that's not all right Oh see it's only sugar 15 years out of date sorry sugar when I arrived I'm amazed at what's been achieved inside well you haven't got as much stuff behind the doors you had before you couldn't even open the door last time I was here only no this is amazing the fact that we're both stood here three of us in your Hall yeah yeah it's a it's a miracle actually and how you think Zoey it was up to here yeah and all the wallpaper on the top of it nothing get to the light switches and all you can actually even though it's real progress when I go to the tent it becomes clear where everything has gone so this is all of this in here it just come out of your little hallway yeah I think it'll be quite a good idea to do a bit of taking stuff out and a bit of taking stuff out of here as well like sorting it and letting it go on to where it's got to go because always you're gonna run out of space in here and then you won't be able to do any organizing because it'll be too full do you see what I mean well we don't have to if you don't feel like it today well can't the boys and I don't sad I know I not really not today do you think they'll be a day that you can before I would rather clear the stairs so it's a clear space then start going through stuff here the thing is while whilst it's like this you've actually got room haven't you to work in here or to work once we get through to the back room to work here in there and do the sorting well no I think you can sort it inside you've got to bring it out go on see if you can think of another excuse to get out of it yeah it's not good of sorting stuff here if we don't know where we've got to go I'm worried Oliver's merely moving her hoard from one place to another like many hoarders she's being a perfectionist about clearing when in reality it will be better just to sort stuff to go and stuff to stay back inside the house she lets me see upstairs for the first time and it's a whole other world of hoarding oh you're on the land you know squeeze through that's where so I can see your bathroom there that's where I used to feed totally upstairs is every bit as bad as the hallway of the four rooms up here three are inaccessible including the bathroom every space is packed with clothes plastic bags and old furniture although you can just squeeze into olives room only a tiny sliver of bed is left free and that's where you sleep is it I sleep it's a double bed but I use it as a single banner it's wholly about that long the bit that you've got to lie on it's not put your legs up I can put my feet back down it's hard to imagine that olive grew up in this house and that these rooms were once her childhood bedroom and her parents room well dad he was lovely he really was I mean he when I had homework he would make me sit there and so I'd done it then he check it for me if there was something he thought wasn't good grammar or something he'd say now my girl just sit there read you think through and see what mistakes you've made so you was I used to say Oh dad you are awful whatever I do you find I've made a mistake but he said I'm never perfect I don't anything you're not perfect he said he got alone buying mistakes I can remember he used to make me sit like table in the back room that was here in this house oh yeah but what would it what would do you think oh my god what's the hell's happened with this house ah can't have this well sort this out what would what advice would your dad give to you now about changing things around the house if that's what you wanted to do well just want to do what each wants to clear everything out and put it back in the right place and anything that we didn't want you know find a source to give it to thank you for letting me come and have a look upstairs all ooh well it's not much to say but it's interesting to see only wallpaper falling off everywhere a problem I'm the first person Olive has let's see upstairs in her house in decades I know from my own experience with my mum's hoarding how difficult that first step is and you needn't be ashamed and you shouldn't be I am because my parents wouldn't you know would be disgusted to think that I was living like that it's probably quite painful to think that your parents would be disgusted with you you know you you wouldn't want to think about it so it's much easier to you know do the normal day-to-day stuff I do feel bad for it because today she told me that she was ashamed of her house and I don't think she should be ashamed and she is now accepting help which is a massive step forward and I think in the future she'll be able to access other help as well [Music] for months since starting work with Janet in South London Caroline and I are making one further push to get things moving out of the house you will never need all these TVs how many do you have I've put up already about 60 days into the Caroline works on Janet's attachment to the hundreds of items of clothing and bedding she holds and I work with Vicky on getting rid of her unwanted clothes it's good that your mom's doing something yeah all right that's a big breakthrough already so let's not forget that I feel that we're just sort of moving stuff on one side of the room to the other yeah she does a lot of moving stuff all the time does she yeah it's like it's a job even at night for no reason well Vicky and I get on with clearing clothes from her room Janet responds by having a dramatically different reaction - Caroline's therapy that's the first pair of shoes you've thrown away what's that like always can go yeah like sporty dancey type stuff for the first time Janet seems genuinely motivated to clear some of her huge horde from the house hope she meant it she tried Kwame iron's hot [Music] damn it amazing yeah how I'm impressed I'm good how are you I'm fine you doing really well so am i right did I hear right that the luggage and everything in them can go to the charity shop yes that's brilliant what's amiss are these all the suitcases now you're talking so this stuff it's not your clothes oh can I take this in the car the charity yeah yes yeah thank you [Laughter] we're getting rid of this whole suitcase Janet's being amazing and realizing that actually it's week that's broken they can go yeah with everything in it yes [Music] I'll take the other side today to you tomato yeah yeah good for you found that one yeah another suitcase down we finish finish yeah we can put this whole bag to the charity yeah gosh Victoria how happy do you think is gonna be you've made her happy [Music] I was shot at the same table but I've always believed that it would happen [Music] your mum is being amazing yes mum a thing you know that over the course of the day we cleared dozens of bags and suitcases from Janet's I think she maybe saw you and she was motivated by you and inspired by you from me clearing out my stuff you know we left her to her own devices a little bit and I think once she started clearing she then got into a real role of it and started to feel that space what she said it feels less heavy and that's just the thing that was great I can't even describe what a big thing missus it's like somebody turned on the light and she suddenly realized that it was easy to let go of stuff [Applause] and there's huge progress in Brighton - Oliver has made it to the back room and kitchen for the first time in over 16 years 15 Danny airtight probably my mum's haha look what I have found my waiting hat so really but you can get married no it is that my hat I wear at a wedding [Music] I've come to see for myself how the house has changed and to find out how much of the hoard she's actually getting rid of this is a lovely sunny room its new olive oh yeah when's the last time that you were able to just walk through the hall and come and use this room 1996 what did it feel like the first time you were able to just walk into this room after all those years well couldn't believe it Oh where'd all this stuff come from well you know there's all this got in it so was this a bit of a shock yeah it was I hear because I've no idea no idea what it all is no oh it's obviously mine I suppose okay so the plan is then to get rid of stuff that you don't want once you've gone through everything but this the vast majority of everything that came out of that hole is now in the tent isn't in the back garden three quarters yeah three quarters and a quarter to be shy could yeah I mean I think it's quite fair to say apart from recycling all we've really done is move stuff from here to the tent isn't it we haven't started sorting yet and you haven't in this room for so many years it sort of begs the question do you actually need any of the stuff that's in here what do you haven't needed it over those lofts how is my mother's stuff I've lived in this house since I was 8 and a half years old and there's a lot of memories in it and so there's stuff in here that you really treasure oh yeah photograph but whether they're still do a little don't know with the marquee outside slowly filling up and a house full of treasures that's captivating olive inside I'm worried about how she'll ever start reducing her hoard Janet and Vicky are progressing well at home but I want to bring them away from the house to see if it's easier for them to bond Vicky's passion is singing but she's never sung in front of her mum I want Janet to see her daughter in a different light [Music] recognize that once he's returned [Music] anyway it's gonna can do hi yeah if you don't God is doing good yeah I know I'm getting bedtime and don't get in hi yeah lemon then and then and then then man I keep a ball with a keep on movin net stopping nothing all the time I'm a people home you must keep egghead that sobbing do I tell ya Wow see why I suppose would see my mom hand why [Applause] [Music] do you know what it was it was amazing like I I never fought I'll have the courage to actually sing in front of her and I think we need to like have a bit more of a bond when we go out together we really do that but obviously it is it's time I know Rome was not built in one day but with there's potential we can definitely build this relationship and bond again it will be slow progress of course it's you know it's not a quick fix it's not something that Janet can change overnight but I think with Richie's support and understanding and ongoing therapy Janet can make some big changes and instead of always being preoccupied with everything that's going on in the house hopefully she can start to enjoy her children and feel proud of them and appreciate what they are doing for her as well and be a mum to them come to Brighton for one last visit Andy and I are continuing to help olive reacquainted herself with the house she lost to her hoard you've got about 5,000 teabags in there when do we want to actually start frying some things out or live I told you I'm not throwing anything out so I've gone through them they will go out in the chain that's one thing I know you've always got plenty of olive his barracks what I want is for her to participate and doing it herself I want her to be able to make the decisions and I want her to be able to maintain the progress that she's made and keep moving forward otherwise the whole thing's pointless so although it's it sort of seems like we haven't got that far I think it's been huge this is huge for Olive can you read that to me yeah course I can place it from 31st of December 1963 dear mr. and mrs.
