I say this knowing where I stand writing wise (no where), and what I say (which I have to say). One has to have a good reason to tell any story through any form. It is a great blessing if the intent and vortex of the narrative is rooted in empathy. Ones consideration towards any exposition has to be brokered accordingly. Many possibilities, including personal narratives, autobiographical approaches too.
