A statement from Christina: 

"Story behind the story: I wrote this piece for UnheardLA, a live event hosted by the Los Angeles NPR affiliate KPCC-FM that features regular people telling their stories. That event, as with many others, is on hold indefinitely and may never come back. So I'd like to share it anyway."
