RADIO PROGRAM No. 64 - Your Right to Be Well—and Why

HOST: Have you ever noticed how often some people talk about sickness? Apparently they feel it's normal to discuss the details of illness and just as normal to be ill.

"The Handbook of Industrial Relations" states: "A certain number of any group of people are either habitually ill or indisposed or think they are ill. It matters little whether they are truly ill or whether they just think they are unable to work, the absenteeism and the consequent loss of production are the same." [The Dartnell Corporation, Publishers, Chicago. Copyright, 1944, by John Cameron Aspley.]

Few people really want to feel that sickness is a normal experience or even a normal topic of conversation. But many do feel that their lives are blighted by illness and that they have to resign themselves to it. What do you say about this?
