terme d'un concours de circonstances en escalade et de tests médicaux éprouvants, elle avorte d'un bébé de 23 semaines, atteint d'une grave maladie héréditaire propre au Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, la tyrosinémie. Mais après coup, les remords et le chagrin l'amènent lentement au bord de l'abîme. Angoisse et culpabilité deviennent partie prenante de son quotidien, alors que son conjoint, un agent de la paix, vit également ce deuil à la dure, à sa manière. Pourront-ils tous les deux entreprendre et réussir un long processus de rétablissement, semblable à la guérison d'un choc post-traumatique? Rédigé dans un style vif et empreint de poésie, ce récit touchant se veut une réflexion intime concernant le droit à l'existence, la résilience, la génétique médicale et le fait d'être mère à notre époque post-moderne.
