Gawd, that sounds awful, Denise, but I'll bet Amy and Jose remember you with fondness and gratitude forever. Maybe you were meant to be their "angel". I can just hear it, "...and she's an Ironman and everything, but she stuck with us for the whole run part!"

Hope you don't get any sicker, and that you recover some value from that old running coach. Sounds like you've opened the door, at least.

And yeah, that Tracey seems like quite a friend!

Sleep tight.
