I hope those closest to Gail gave it their best effort to help her before giving up. I would have just held her close and given it my all. Would have loved trying to find out what made her tick.

And you're right about fame as a profession. That's what it is. All these bold faced names, and what are most known for? Being famous. That's it. Not accomplished.
