History: Tanner is the mother of Leonard Betts, formerly known as Albert Tanner. She believed her highly unusual son was, "here for a purpose." She protected her son from the authorities and nursed him back to health when he was weak and needed to regenerate. As an ultimate sacrifice, Tanner allowed her son to take her cancer from her, surgically removing her tumor in the bedroom of her suburban home. Betts notified the paramedics after completion of the procedure. Tanner survived. Her son, however, was intercepted at the hospital to which she was taken. Betts was killed in a confrontation with Agt. Scully.
