JR Richard was one of the best pitchers in MLB in the late 1970s. Nobody took his complaints of pain in the arm and shoulder seriously in 1980 until he collapsed on the field before a game. Emergency surgery revealed a life-threatening blood clot in his neck. He never pitched again.

Mindset is part of the equation, but ongoing treatment might make playing difficult no matter how driven to play she is.
