Since Elizabeth lived in fifteenth century belgium and she had symptoms of what would now be diagnosed as schizophrenia plus the fact that she could not care for herself and her family abandoned her, Elizabeth will most likely die and she could die in many ways.

15th century Belgium is known as the battleground of Europe. Living in this place with or without schizophrenia will leave you dead with either 3rd degree burns or stray bullet in the head. Plus the people in this time are fond of witch-hunting. If you show signs of abnormality, they might think you are a witch or possessed and eitherway, you'll be killed or might unfortunately die in exorcism. Poor Elizabeth.
