The uncles brother's place had stacks of boxes and newspapers in the rooms and hallways. It was a scary maze trying to walk from the front door to the kitchen. I was there once and would never go back againI have an adult cousin, an adult niece & an ex-BF's mother who were hoarders. Its absolutely bizarre. My sister says its the freakiest thing. Just trying to put her clothes away or throw out empty food wrappers sends her into an emotional spiral. I'm praying none of my kids caught that gene.
