more "storybook". there are things that these people can't cure. In fact, some of their prescribed methods, while they may extend lives, actually exacerbate the unattractive effects of the underlying conditions. you know--for these theoretical individuals.
Hmmm... haven't seen that much. A change that extends one's life generally also improves one's looks, and some such changes even improve one's smell. Making the change might produce crankiness for a while, but that doesn't last forever and there are things that can be prescribed to mitigate it.
a fine and enviable madness, this delusion that all questions have answers, and nothing is beyond the reach of a strong left arm.
