“Your daughter is more than your daughter. She was, in a way, your mother too. She played like both roles, your daughter…”, launched Marie-Claude Barrette.

Eyes full of water, Nathalie Simard then replied this:

“Oh, that’s appalling. It should never have happened. […] We’ve already talked about it, well yes, we have no secrets. She used to wake me up in the morning and say, ‘Mom, look how beautiful the sun is! It is sunny today. I’m hungry.’ She was 9 or 10 years old, and I was in a big depression lying in bed. [Je me demandais] how will I do.”
