3.Grover Cleveland
No. 22 (1885-1889), No. 24 (1893-1897) In May 1893, in a cover-up that’s hard to imagine in today’s 24-hour news cycle, doctors secretly boarded Cleveland’s personal yacht and removed a cancerous growth from the roof of his mouth. The operation was a success. He lived another 15 years and died of a heart attack in 1908 at the age of 71.
4.Abraham Lincoln
No. 16 (1861-1865) Researchers have debated the reason for Lincoln’s unusually long, thin hands, feet, face, and neck for decades. One newer theory is that he may have inherited a condition from his mother called multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2. It affects the glands that make hormones and can cause problems with your muscles, joints, and digestive system. It also can cause cancer. We may never know for sure. Lincoln was assassinated in 1865.
