If they never say exactly what's wrong with him, or the diagnosis is vague, that would be the clincher for me. Not for me. First, remember how cancer carried a stigma forty years ago, how the word was said in whispers? That's still true among the Palestinians, who are not exactly known for their progressive attitudes.
