She's a bit strange still, but in a "normal" way. I'd describe her as odd or eccentric, but not wacko. I saw her for the first time in about ten years at a family reunion last summer, and my kids found her quite delightful. I, on the other hand, was a bit unnerved by her as a kid.

After the event I spoke of, she did fine for several weeks, then some of the issues came back. But they seemed manageable, not out of control, and over time, she seemed to work through the more troubling issues. Mostly without intervention by mental health specialists.

So my interpretation is that there were both spiritual and mental components to her troubles, and both needed to be treated in order for her to lead a normal life.
