Discuss Jamey's mother and the mental issues she had.

Jamey's mother's name was Antoinette. She was said to have shown signs of mental illness. Due to the attitudes of the time period in which she lived, she was regarded as weak instead of as someone who had a mental illness that they could not control. Antoinette was also agoraphobic. Antoinette's husband Jack decided to commit her to a mental institute, but she overdosed on opiates and died before being committed.
