- Summary:
- A middle-aged woman tells of police invading her home to remove "everything," bringing in dumpsters to throw away thirty-seven years of her belongings. She becomes defensive about charges her neighbors, city officials, and the police made about her having excessive numbers of cats, storing over-flowing amounts of objects in her broken-down car, having refuge outside her house, and violating health codes. She demonstrates no insight that her hoarding is unreasonable. She is upset her children do not value her "collections." She tells how valuable memories are attached to each object. She is confronted about living in her garage without adequate heat and tells of being overwhelmed by her husband's death.
