Summary:

Andrea Farkas Patenaude talks with a man about his concerns about early death and a shortened life span. His father died at age 38 from coronary thrombosis when the client was 7 years old, and an uncle died at age 42, also from coronary thrombosis. The client is not overly worried about cardiac disease because he sees his doctors on a regular basis, but he feels that he has had too many illnesses for a man his age. Patenaude talks with him about his own health concerns and how they have impacted his views on life, his family relationships, and his concerns about the health of his children
