You probably do a lot of great things for her, so add one to the list: help her enjoy running and do her best. If you do a good job and she has any talent at all she may finally get a sub 6:00, and you'll be a real hero to her when she does.
You can't save a person from the pain in their life, but you can sure help them deal with it.
