description We found Yani and her mother in their small house, which has one doorway opening onto a small sitting room and another doorway onto a room serving as a kiosk from which they sell a handful of everyday food items in an attempt to supplement a small pension the older woman receives. The sitting room was opened for us, and we were relieved to be greeted warmly, to find Yani in a good health, both she and her mother happy to see us. We chatted with the two of them, took out our tape recorder and picked up our interview. It was some time into our conversation before we learned that Yani had had another acute psychotic episoed in the brief interval since we had last seen her.
