Mrs. Taylor Outcome is a 73-year-old female currently living at her own residence; however, her daughter is worried that Mrs. Outcome may be "losing it" after she left a burner on and caused a small fire in her house. After this event, Mrs. Outcome's daughter, Teresa, stayed with her mother to make sure she was "all right". Teresa noted that during the night her mother once yelled out "help me, help me."
