Geraldine Hughes: Sandra Talbot

Quotes 

• Michael Cutter : [to Sandra Talbot]  If you had a million dollars to pay for caretakers, would you still consider this procedure for Lacy?

  Sandra Talbot : Yes. It's going to improve her life.

  Michael Cutter : And yours, too, right? It'll reduce your workload. Make her easier to lift, to feed?

  Sandra Talbot : It's about keeping our angel where she belongs at home and in the arms of the family that loves her.

  Michael Cutter : By keeping her small. But if she matures into a grown woman, then you'll have other inconvenient things to worry about: her menstruation, her sexuality...

  Sandra Talbot : No, it's not about those things.

  Michael Cutter : She won't be so cute and cuddly anymore.

  Sandra Talbot : It's not about that. We won't be able to care for her at home. We won't be able to bring her with us, to include her...

  Michael Cutter : You'd need more caretakers, special equipment, a bigger home...

  Sandra Talbot : Yes. It would be too expensive. Yes. We couldn't do it.

  Michael Cutter : But you wouldn't want Lacy to grow up even if you had all the money in the world. You'd still put her through this procedure. That's what you just said. You wouldn't feel the same way about her if she grew up, would you? It's easier to love her now, when she's small, like a doll, isn't it?

  Sandra Talbot : [sobbing]  I love her, I do love her. My angel.
