“Ignorance really needs to learn to shut up, because I see you laughing, making fun, saying that I find excuses for my daughter because she is retarded and that I find excuses with her corrected age, but you you're completely crazy“, continued Amandine Pellissard, mother of nine children. “I never understood this dynamic, of making fun of a baby who fought, who had more strength, I think, than we would ever have (…) When you you are in neonatal intensive care for months, your baby is between life and death for months, you see babies leaving; Maéna lost two roommates. A friend that I made, because it inevitably creates links between mothers, when we experience that, it creates links; my girlfriend lost her little boy at six weeks of life, they were twins, a little girl and a little boy, who were born at the same term as Maéna“.
