I appreciated hearing about health issues when I was young. Seeing my mom's dentures sure helped me take extremely good care of my teeth, seeing heart issues in my dad's family also made me aware of trying to avoid those problems. Even seeing painful arthritis helped me research how to avoid it best I can. My dad was from the school of "don't talk about health issues", but my mom was a wide open book. I much preferred being in the know.
