A forewarning, some subjects discussed in this story could be painful or offensive to some readers as it deals with brain health issues, PTSD, violence in school environments, and complications with gun ownership. I will address these with the upmost respect. That being said, none of the characters will have a first person experience with the violence addressed, only witnessing it from CTV recordings after the fact.
This story is not about the actual event, but how people and a community adjust to their new normal after enduring trauma. And how much I respect and admire those who carry on despite what has happened to them.
