It is partly the fault of our culture. The first thing a person asks on the phone is "Hello. How are you." And rarely do people tell the truth if they're sick. "I'm fine, how are you?" And so it goes. Some people see it as a personal strepgth not to talk about their ill- - Those providing makeup for a lot of children on Halloween may want to invest in a small brush. JL n't j, t n Ronco FJoIson Lifestyle Editor nfcss; they are private people. Jacqueline Kennedy was one of these. Even during her last days prior to her death from a rare cancer, her friends hadn't realized her death was imminent; she was out walking just before she died. A close friend of mine in Salt Lake City was created out of the same cloth. We get together as often as we can and speak of from patriarchs to many things politics. But we don't talk about her health because it is a topic she brushes off. She is a cancer survivor in a most remarkable way. First, she had breast cancer that had metastasized to her liver. Her only chance for survival was to remove of her liver and treat her with chemotherapy. She survived the operation and treatment but still all was not well, and t seven years ago she wasn't two-thir- ds Expected to live. Yet, whenever you asked how she felt, she said, "I'm fine," and she'd go on to another topic. She did have some more lumps removed from her lungs a year or so later, but she was back at work ' in a day or two. Today she is alive and well, though I'm never sure even when I ask. . Just as the illness differs, so do - the people who have it. From my " observation, men seem to have a more difficult time admitting to illness than women. In fact, I was shocked the other day when I asked my husband how he felt and he replied, "I never feel good." It was obviously a weak moment. He has never admitted it ! ; ; before. . If it hadn't been for my mother " and later my stepmother, I never would have known when my father was ill. 'Though he lived until age 91, he had suffered a heart attack at age 50Tand there were many times in between when his heart acted up. Once was the week he was to be Honored as a BYU Distinguished Professor. When my mother qajled, I went over and found him lying on the bed. His heart was fibrillating out of control. U'You're sick," I told him. 'JWe've got to get you to the hospital." J3t will go away if I rest; it's just $ little arrhythmia," he said weakly. But it wasn't. It was good we took him into hospital emergency; a they were able to wgular heartbeat. And a few days later, out of sheer will, he was 4ble to give his BYU address as planned. Jn contrast, there was his older Sister. She was a farm wife and worked right alongside the men. Jhen her husband had a stroke when she was only 49 and he died i 1 years later. It took a lot out of iaer and after that, she was sick a reat deal of the time. When she visited us during those later years, tier health and that of others was (he focus of the conversation. It .tvas as if she were the keeper of :.$Yeryone's health history, even ; , those whom she didn't know. she had great compassion and if anyone were seriously ill she came to the rescue. But as far as her own health was concerned, it never was that serious until her last years when she died at age 94. It must have been therapy all ; those years to talk about health like going to scary movies to alleviate your own fear. ; r UVSC student Jason Boren creates a wolfman look by applying crepe hair to Nathan Broberg's chin.
