## Opinion text

JUSTICE RAKOWSKI, specially concurring:
I agree with both of my colleagues that, because Eileen Majca was outside of the "window of anxiety,” summary judgment is proper.
I, therefore, would not address which standard is appropriate. Under either, plaintiffs’ claims must fail.
The decisive utterance of this case is that summary judgment is affirmed because plaintiff is outside the "window of anxiety.” Further, because my colleagues cannot agree on which standard is proper, any discussion of this issue does not even rise to the level of obiter dictum.
