soooob it'll be a sob fest for both of them because this'll hit so many triggers for helen ;; the whole outliving people is A Thing with her, and outliving her daughter is A Bigger Thing.

Also... since this is kind of a big deal for helen, would you be up for threading something at some point? like just a little side thing on helen's contact post or something. maybe helen giving that comfort / telling the ashley story sometime after she finds out? because i am crazy ocd and like to have reference points.
