    Her demise in terms of swimming was a source of speculation for a couple of years. I often wondered what happened given her astonishing early career. Now I understand and it is heart breaking. Whether or not she stays in the pool is mostly irrelevant at this point. I hope she can overcome this terrible problem. Agreed. This is a difficult problem to overcome. Having gone through this battle as a teenager and college student, it is a very long road to recovery that sometimes feels as though it won't happen. I don't care if Dagny swims again at any level. I just hope that she is able to overcome and live a long, healthy life.
