The drugs typically used "come from the family's medicine cabinet".

Darian Pelicot is unable to think back to her childhood with the man she calls Dominique .

The events that were unleashed on that November day made her who she is today .

She derives strength from her husband, her brothers and her 10-year-old - her "lovely son".
