I was watching the 1970s series EMERGENCY! A victim had passed out in a home-installed sauna and the firemen had to get him out. When he was taken to the hospital, the doctor figured out that someone in his physical condition--no heart attacks, not overweight, etc was in the early stages of developing Addison's Disease. Made me think of Miss Austen because it is speculated that this is what she suffered from.
Yours Aye,
Diane

I used to love Emergency back on the day. Johnny Gage was one of my first fangirl crushes.
I would have loved to have seen that episode. I did some not very in-depth research on Addison's when I was writing the JA Handbook, and it convinced me that she did indeed suffer from Addison's. All the symptoms and causes fit.

The MeTV network runs these along with CHIPS on weekday afternoons. This is one of those free broadcast channels that runs great old tv shows.
Yours Aye,

I get that channel over the air (I don't have cable) but I'm usually at work on weekday afternoons. I guess that's why I haven't run across it.

I had crushes on both Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe when I was a kid. I even wrote to them and got photographs from them.
Imagine my delight when I went to a powwow (Native American dance event) and was introduced to a friend's cousin "Randy." He was very gracious and kind. You never knew who you might run into at a powwow in Los Angeles, back in the 1980s.

Not surprised here. I think his heritage is Seminole. Plus, he has a brother who was in the mini-series THE SEEKERS (part of the Kent Family Chronicles from late '70s) as either a Sioux or Cheyenne. I often think he and George Harrison could have passed for either brothers or cousins. Very cute!
Yours Aye,

Even as a "more mature" man, he was hot. Silver hair becomes him very well.

FYI for anybody, MeTV not running EMERGENCY! after first of the year. Maybe they will bring it back in '18 or '19. The complete series is available on DVD.
Yours Aye,

It was just a signature, if I remember rightly. I haven't seen my picture in years, but if I run across it in my files I'll post a scan here.

10/27/16--update--episode ran a couple of days ago. It can be found in Season 4, Episode 6 entitled "Surprise". By the way, in the next episode JOHN CARRADINE (!!!) showed up as a man who has his hands glued to a model sailing boat.

It was interesting! And eventually I'll probably binge all the seasons. It was a nice little trip back to my adolescence, watching that.
