Oh she was a treasure, and probably crazy in the best way. So many of our creative geniuses are I have become convinced our ideas of what is normal covers only a very narrow band in the middle. And that tiny section is probably made up of mental health specialists... The rest of us are spread out on either side, and to make it more interesting, probably move around on either side far more often than we realise. Or care to admit.

I've come across a few mental health specialists in my work - I might suggest some of them live well outside that very narrow band.  Flakey, eccentric, neurotic are a few words I might use to describe some of them... I don't doubt they are good at what they do, but I suspect they have all the same 'issues' as us 'normal' folks...
