The First Ladies of the United States are a surprisingly unhealthy group of women. While the rigors of public life are arguably analogous, longevity is valued in potential presidents but overlooked in their spouses.
Notwithstanding the women's relatively younger age and their proclivity to live longer, an equal number of Presidents and First Ladies - four to be exact - have died in office of natural causes. In every instance, the illness of a lady married to a president was initiated and/or aggravated by her participation in political life.
