She is NOT fragile in spirit, and is a walking miracle considering what was done to her. Still, she is perfectly aware of her physical limitations. She DOES have a fabulous staff to help her. If she wants it to happen, she will not hinder Mark, but if she doesn't, Mark will absolutely give priority to her wishes.
