Sybil Perez and Catherine in “Harvest”

[to Catherine about Alicia] You have no idea what it's like.

I saw her medical records. I looked at her x-rays. I know what that little girl suffered, what you put her through.

So you would let your child die and do nothing. Never. No, you'd talk to doctors and research. And then you'd find out that the National Bone Marrow Registry can't help you 'cause your son is mixed race. And even if he wasn't, there aren't enough donors. Out of four million, only 205,000 are Latino. I did what I had to do.

You put one child over another.

[scoffs] I don't expect you to understand. You don't have kids.

Uh, I have a daughter.

So, what kind of mother are you? When do you see her? You work nights. You probably don't even know where she half the time. Alicia's life may not have been simple, but at least I knew her. Can you say the same?
