First of all, to each of the parents here who has had the courage to share their horrible, tragic experiences with this committee for the benefit of this Parliament, thank you for your courage to come forward to do that and for the honour that brings to your angel babies, to Quinn, to Olivia, to the Slinns' daughter Angel and to all of the other angel babies out there. Thank you for your courage to be here. I know it can't be easy.
There are a few things I want to try to address. Let me speak first to the importance of the idea of a bereavement leave, which is essentially what this bill creates. It's not what it's called, but it's essentially what it's creating.
I'm going to ask you this, Lee. Tell me if you're not comfortable speaking about this, and it's fine if you're not. I know that you tried to return to work very shortly after Quinn's death. Would you be willing to tell this committee about the experience and what that was like? You had to make that choice given the situation you were in.
