She's a dancer

"And at the end of it, because she was disturbing people and her homework was always late and so on, little kid of eight, in the end the doctor went and sat next to Gillian and said, 'Gillian, I’ve listened to all these things that your mother’s told me, I need to speak to her privately.' So he said, 'Wait here, we’ll be back, we won’t be very long,' and they went and left her. But as they went out of the room, he turned on the radio that was sitting on his desk. And when they got out of the room he said to her mother, 'Just stand and watch her.' And the minute they left the room, she said she was on her feet, moving to the music. They watched for a few minutes and he turned to her mother and he said, 'You know, Mrs. Lynn, Gillian isn’t sick, she’s a dancer. Take her to a dance school.'"
