Thank you so much for coming on.
2:50:11
It's a very difficult topic for you.
2:50:12
No parent should ever have to bury their child, especially when they could have received help sooner.
2:50:20
I appreciate you bringing up the grievance issue that you did because I will get in touch with with FDNY and that department.
2:50:27
And also, we have your contact information.
2:50:29
So I'm gonna ask the council person in your district to reach out to you to help you navigate that so that you don't have to go through that alone.
