If only we considered verbal and mental abuse to be harm. What am I saying, that's silly.

Health care has been used as a weapon in the past… and thats not good…

Ruining your future employment prospects over something as silly as a farewell card seems like demonstrable self harm to me

Nope. Just pointing out that she's fucked herself long term with this frivolous lawsuit, so not only is she an asshole, she also didn't think through how bringing this lawsuit would make her look to her future potential employers. That kind of short sighted thinking combined with being an asshole might need some further evaluation.
