Default High IQ, Insanity, and denial (an experiment)

My wifes aunt is a genius as are her husband and children. Over the past 5 years she has suffered 3 major strokes. She is disfunctional but does not accept this fact. She is in a lock down facility in a nursing home. Tries to escape constantly. She has "picked" the security locks which are easy to pick. Yet failed the kitchen test by attempting to reach into a pot of boiling water to remove an ear of corn.

To make a long story longer she failed every single competency test at the nursing home. Then her son gave her an IQ test in which she would still qualify for mensa and I wonder...how does the brain work?
