It is well known that the press, respecting Franklin Roosevelt's privacy, hid his polio from the eyes of the public.
Today, the Washington Post was kind enough to share with us the following "extraneous personal details:"
His tonsils were taken out at age 5 and he had appendicitis at 10. A fatty cyst was removed from his chest in 1960, and he had a hemorrhoid while in the Guard.
I really didn't need to know this.
