Synopsis
Excerpt from A Reaping
But the real invalid, just like the man who enjoys real health, never talks about such matters. It is only to the amateur in disease that they are of the smallest interest. The man who is well never thinks about his health, and certainly never mentions it; to the man who is really ill some divine sense of irre sponsibility is given. He brushes it aside, just as tone brushes aside any innate inability; with common courage-v - how lavishly is that beautiful gift given to whomever really needs it-w - he makes the best of other things.
