Rumer also expressed her hope that sharing their family's experience could bring comfort and hope to others facing similar challenges.

"And I think if there's any way sharing our experience brings hope — whatever comes forward as a family — that can have an effect and bring any sort of hope, comfort to someone else experiencing that, then to me, that's … everything."
