Thanks for posting this on our forum, Rocklobster. I’m really sorry to hear about your parents.
I can totally understand where you’re coming from, so let’s have a look together and see what we can do.
From what you mention, it sounds like you’re being asked for this one-time code to access the account in question.
Are there any other devices that could be still logged in to the account? If yes, please check their notifications; the one-time code can sometimes be found there.

Let me know, and we'll take it from there.
