Scenario

When sensory memories are the last connection to someone who died

My adult children want me to get rid of their father's clothes but I still smell his cologne on his shirts and I'm not ready to lose that.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The body's archive of the dead persists in ways that others cannot understand or share, creating private grief that resists collective healing.
