Dealing with health conditions, p. 44

After reading the text from p 44:
Dealing with ill health is not esay, depending on many variables such as the seriousness or the length of the illness. Suffering from an acute illness is very different from having a chronic one. It's also really different to have a life-threatening disease or a mild illness which may not cause any trouble. Either way, the way we deal with illness may be as important as the desease itself.
