It is true that her talented daughter - she was also a great singer and guitarist - had suffered from anxiety since her teens. True, too, that she was annoyed on Easter Sunday evening over a couple of trivial things, but Arwen had a call with old schoolfriends and was roaring her head off laughing at 11pm.
Marie said goodnight to her daughter at midnight and found her unresponsive half an hour later. There was nothing that happened that day that merited anything so catastrophic, says Marie.
