Thanks! Very nice of you to say that. My sister-in-law is back in grad school, pursuing a second PhD (though she's not looking to return to academia after she finishes the degree). I hope that the career change turns out as well for her as it did for your wife.

I'm sorry that happened to your SIL.  I hope that, in retrospect, she's able to look back and say she's happy that she ended up in the new field, even though she had to change careers for an unfair reason.  My wife changed careers due to events outside her control -- though not in such an unfair context -- and she's much happier now than she would have been had she stayed with her first career track.
