Editor's Note

Context added by editor
Aunt Brie's suspicion that Mom suffered from Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is significant because it predates the formal clinical assessment. A court-ordered evaluation would later result in a diagnosis of "Borderline Personality with sociopathic traits" and a recommendation for a "higher standard of care" for Mom. Brie's blog post recognizing the patterns in 2016 suggests the family dynamics were visible to those who knew what to look for.
