I know the discipline and drive it takes to become a good skater, not to mention an Olympian. She also had the smarts and drive to go to Stanford and become a surgeon.

There’s much more than just “bad luck” at play here. Is it drugs? Mental illness?

I see Meryl Davis recently bought an old farmhouse in my neck of the woods that she’s restoring. If she’s smart she has real plans for the future beyond skating because her looks aren’t going to carry her.
