There is a guideline for not speaking of certain procedures. So I will not speak of the procedure, not at all.
While waiting for the inevitable, however, a reflection. One reason that the posts on this thread have followed the course they have, is a consequence of addressing a topic from a certain direction.
The results might have been very different if the same topic had been approached from the reverse. This was explained to me, patiently and non-judgmentally, by somebody who knows me unusually well, and who knows how to make suggestions from a place of compassion. (I really really miss this person right now.)
"You do everything backwards," this person told me cheerfully, explaining that most other people approach a situation from the opposite place that I do. And this gave me the detachment -- and humor -- needed to look at the problem from a fresh perspective.
Using the OP and my succeeding posts as an example. The facts and the data are presented first, from sources with some verification in place. Then there are remarks on how two situations are related. There is my admission that a trigger in my psychological makeup, from my past, links the two situations in my emotions and thoughts. I comment on the survivors and witnesses. And I might say a word or two about how I feel.
The results might have been very different had the OP focussed on my feelings, my emotions, what it means to me, and had later posts gradually introduce the journalist links.
Or, the procedure might have been inevitable, regardless.
