Her Instagram has her mother’s name on it. Googled it and the obituary says that she “passed away peacefully, after a long illness”.

You are very right about her needing help and it doesn’t sit well with me either that she’s nearly guaranteed to never receive that help.

Oh nice! I’m glad to hear the part about her being beaten to death wasn’t true. Although now that I think of it ig she never explicitly said the man killed her, only remaking that he had severely beaten her and then remarking on her passing shortly afterwards which lead me to the wrong deduction. That still makes me wanna infer if he ever did actually get to them after moving to NYC or not though

But yeah, it’s extremely depressing to know that we have so little options for people like this and that more likely than not she’ll be left with her own disturbed thoughts

It says her husband preceded her in death, so I hope that wasn’t the case (looks like he passed in 82 and her in 2014)). It actually looks like she passed away in Ohio, so I’m curious why this person didn’t return to Ohio with her mother or other family members. An interesting and sad story nonetheless. I live in midtown, surprised I haven’t run into this woman.

Huh that’s interesting. I wonder if the husband was actually abusive and the mother went back to Ohio for whatever reason or that was a delusion that she created in her mind and thus prevented her from returning with them

People have been saying she’s mostly around the upper east side so there’s a chance you might run into her eventually judging by how long this has been going on
