My 88 year old mother is in "generally good health". The rigors of
the presidency, however, take a heavy toll. A very heavy toll. I would
not be at all surprised if at some point during the campaign, McCain
has to be treated for "exhaustion". Even a very robust 72 year old may
be pushing things to do this job. Being one of 100 senators is a far
cry from being THE President.

Many believe stress often triggers cancer. Someone who has had cancer
4 times obviously is prone to developing it. Being cancer free at the
moment is great news, but it's not the whole picture.




I don't think anyone knows for sure. Treatment for cancer is based on a
data base of statistical information ....
they know that "x" type of drug or "y" type of surgery statistically has had
the most benefit.

McCain also has a very fair complexion, at a higher statistical potential of
getting skin cancer.

I think it can be said that McCain has demonstrated a high capability for
handling stress. To some, stress can knock one out. To others, it simply
invigorates them.

McCain alleviates his stress by letting his horrific temper out of the bag.
