Sum It Up, is a great read. It is a fairly thick book, but I couldn't put it down. I had no idea that she has rheumatoid arthritis. She would be bed ridden without her medications.

She goes into her diagnosis of Alzheimers, a lot.

But the recruiting stories and the play by play of the games are great. Not all of her players liked her, but they all respected her and many came to love her.

It only touched on the collapse of her 27 year marriage, but her years growing up at home shaped her into the coach that she became. She had a tough life.

It is sad that her health problems forced to to resign. She is only 2 years older than I am.
