Would you say more about that?
17:13
Yeah, you know, I see this very anguished, sorrowful, difficult obligation, a sense of obligation from those who were abused to visit their abuser, whether they are dying or have died.

And the conversation around forgiveness, that's an ongoing conversation.
17:41
And I do think that I named something in the book forgiveness propaganda.
17:46
I do think that church culture, pop culture, whether it's self-help or spirituality, really overemphasize and push hard on forgiveness.
17:56
And if the victim can't forgive their abuser, then somehow they're the ones who are in the way of a beautiful Hollywood reconciliation, right? But still, I get why that narrative is pushed, because we do want to see, in some sense, some sort of happily ever after come out of this.
18:16
We want to believe that abusers can be redeemed.

Yeah.
43:34
And I've one time got a call.
43:36
I hear screaming.
43:38
And I said, what's the patient's name and room number? I don't know.
43:42
It's just on the sixth floor.
43:44
Come.
43:44
They're screaming.
