Health problems can arise at any age, but it’s striking how much of this season’s cast has experience with cancer. Last night, retired CEO Michael revealed that he was diagnosed just before he got the call to join. “My immediate inclination was not to proceed,” he said, but after encouragement from his family (and an OK from his doctor), he changed his mind.
“What could have been a really lousy, difficult year for me instead was kind of a great one,” Michael said, adding that he’s going to be OK and is grateful “for this experience that came at just the right time for me.” [Parade]
