      So, how much leniency would you think is a good amount? What would you suggest happen?

          Tell that to Brexit. Cause that is what was decided for everyone else as well.

          So, the solution to this Brexit problem was to not do Brexit. Yeah, entirely true.

        A few more letters in the last months before maybe? Actually contacting the person a bit before the real consequences hit, just out of consideration.

      She was 68 when this started. Even 78 is too young to automatically assume senility related inability to cope with the situation.
