I think that there should not be any "major event" before than, at least I hope. <br><br>One thing what I can say for sure, she is extremely dedicated, alas I do not know to what, I was not able to

Not being in the space, I don't know the magnitude of the issue, but
there are some decent acute mental health resources in the city. Check
out <a target="_blank" href="http://www.namisf.org/crisis-serv.html">http://www.namisf.org/crisis-serv.html</a>.</span><br>
<br>
I wouldn't be put off by the term 'crisis'. In order to receive acute
care (as opposed to long-term), potential patients must first be
evaluated by crisis-oriented personnel.<br>

she clearly has psychiatric issues. Could be some kind of<br>
Tourette's, bizarre stream of consciousness. Highly articulate tho.<br>
<br>
Her story is that her sister has been named as her conservator?<br>
guardian? and will not send her money directly. She wants to the money<br>
to go back to Philadelphia.<br>
<br>
It seems extremely dodgy to me. She has a brand-new laptop.<br>
