Bailey Chagnon's family has been by her bedside in hospital ever since a crash last Friday southeast of Ottawa left her severely injured and claimed the life of her fiancée and unborn child.
"Bailey is a fighter," said her father, Stephan. "We're hopeful at some point today she's alert."
The crash happened on Route 200 at St-Pierre Road in Embrun around 6:35 p.m. Friday between a black SUV and a white car.
Chagnon's fiancé, whose family has asked not to be identified, was pronounced dead at the scene. Chagnon was rushed to hospital with serious injuries including broken bones and organ trauma. She's undergone multiple surgeries.
The driver and passenger in the other vehicle were also taken to hospital, Russell County OPP said. The investigation is ongoing and the official cause of the crash has not been released.
"Our daughter-in-law was a big part of our family," said Stephan Chagnon. "And Bailey and her were always together. Two peas in a pod."
