Joseph said the woman appeared calm and soon tried to flee the scene, but residents stopped her.

4. Post-partum psychosis, imho. My sister suffered from it and it was devastating to see how far down

she went. I did not leave her alone with the kids. It took me two or three weeks to get our mother and her husband to understand how bad she had gotten.

I hope this poor infant did not suffer the fire (so much for that after rereading the link. ), or other, and that the poor mother is treated kindly as a very ill woman.
