they fear rejection and ridicule.  As Mark Wheeler puts it, "Maybe they just
don't have the time to visit the doctor, what with all the daily appearances
on Sally, Jerry and Ricki."

Aging Rockers Department: Bob Dylan was released after being treated for a
potentially fatal lung infection.  "It took awhile for the doctors to

incredible pain." (Daily Scoop)
