Teresa Heinz Kerry: A Persona of Her Own
We really enjoy reading about Teresa Heinz Kerry. We always learn something new about her, and it's refreshing to see a candidate's wife with a distinct personality and a persona of her own. The Sunday New York Times has this long profile of Ms. Heinz Kerry. The new item we learned about her today?
But Ms. Heinz Kerry, a physician's daughter who peruses medical journals and toxicology articles and is intrigued by alternative medicine and Eastern philosophy, knew enough to have her husband's blood retested for C-reactive protein, a little-known indicator of potentially cancerous inflammation. Two days before Christmas, his doctor told Mr. Kerry that his wife's fears were well placed; he was in the very early stages of prostate cancer. Ms. Heinz Kerry may well have saved her husband's life.
