## Resource

Welcome back to the Redacted History Podcast! On today's episode we are discussing a lesser known topic concerning the presidency of John F Kennedy: his health. No, not his assassination in Dallas But rather the laundry list of lifelong illnesses that he dealt with. He knocked on death's door several times before that fateful day in 1963. It begs the question, how long would Kennedy have even lived had he not been assassinated?
