As a grown man, he confronts the trauma of what he suffered and the psychological aftermath of his experience, grappling with shame, guilt and the devastating impact it had on his family, relationships and sense of self. Despite what he endured, Gerard's story is one of hope and healing, of acknowledging pain and seeking support, of honesty and justice.
