She was diagnosed with cancer, which took her arm. It was replaced by a robotic arm designed by Dr. William Bell and developed by Massive Dynamic. She attributes Sam Weiss with helping her recover from the loss, and replacement, of her arm. She was shot in the chest and robbed of the powerful energy cell hidden in her robotic arm. She has Kevlar components in the sternum region of her chest. This helped her survive being shot. Technicians from Massive Dynamic returned function to her arm when she was in the hospital recovering from the gunshot wound to her chest.

"We've reached a point where science and technology have advanced at an exponential rate for so long... that it may be far beyond our ability to regulate and control it."
"I won't play coy, Phillip. I understand the FBI has opened an investigation into Massive Dynamic. As you can imagine, we spend a lot of money on counter-intelligence. And any probe into our finances raises red flags. So... What are you fishing for? Industrial espionage? Treaty violations? "
