But I'm not about to suggest that she get counseling or therapy. For all I know, she's already had that -- in fact a rejection of an inheritance may be the direct result of that counseling. Mary's only interest was to pursue legal means of disassociating herself even further from a parent, and that's what I -- and Marc Levine -- sought to provide. The rest of it, especially the psychological rest of it, is her business. And her business only.

Sounds to me like there are serious and troubling emotional issues involved. In which case, wouldn't she like to use cash from the estate for a lot of personal therapy? Which would help her overcome her obvious problems with inheritance? I wonder why Mary wants nothing from her mother’s estate.
