Imagine a mother’s love so fierce she’d stand in front of a freight train to save her child. Now picture that same instinct twisted into something dark, something unthinkable. In 2017, 7-year-old Olivia Gant—known as the 'Princess' in her hospital gowns—passed away after years of invasive surgeries, feeding tubes, and a heartbreaking decline. Her mother, Kelly Gant, told everyone Olivia was terminally ill, racking up thousands of hospital visits and even a Make-A-Wish bucket list. But when Kelly showed up a year later claiming her other daughter was sick too, suspicions were raised. What they uncovered was a chilling web of lies that turned a tragic story into something far more sinister. Allison tells us just how far a mother’s deception can go.
