Leblanc last saw his 86-year-old mother on March 8 at her favourite spot, a café called l'Auberge du Marchand. His sister, Évangéline Leblanc, had come home for a week-long visit. With the rules surrounding hospital visits still unclear, Évangéline, a retired nurse, was able to see her mother the following Monday. Évangéline Leblanc poses with the photo she took of her mother during the last visit they had together, at a hospital in Quebec City in April. Despite the protective equipment she wore in the negative pressure room to see her mother, she tested positive for COVID-19 one week later.
