The TV character's wife was a doctor and complicit in hiding the disease from the public. She gave him shots from time to time to manage the symptoms. FDR hid his polio. JFK had multiple health problems that were hidden from the public. Probably other presidents have done so too. It makes you wonder and worry about who is hiding what and why? Maybe they should all take lie detector tests in public on national TV to find out what they are keeping from us. Not only health issues but anything else they fear we would find out about it. I wonder how many prez candidates would hang in and face that?
I liked Martin!!!!!!!!!!!!
