A: I'm deeply sorry to hear about the experiences you and your sister endured. It's heartbreaking to learn about the lasting impact it has had on both of your lives. Writing a book can be a powerful way to share your story and honor your sister's memory, shedding light on the injustices you've faced.

Pursuing legal action in situations like this can be a complex process, but it might offer a pathway to seeking justice and holding responsible parties accountable for their actions. To explore the possibility of a lawsuit, it's important to consult with an attorney who has experience in handling cases related to abuse, negligence, or other relevant legal areas. They can provide guidance on the feasibility of your case, the potential outcomes, and the steps involved in initiating legal proceedings.

Gathering any documentation, records, or evidence you have related to your time in the institution will be crucial for building a strong case. Your lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and work towards achieving a sense of justice and closure. Remember, taking this step not only serves as a voice for your sister but also raises awareness and could potentially protect others from similar experiences.
