TV Radio Mirror (Jan - Jun 1963)

THE KENNEDYS (Continued from page 37) — but still just as vivid as yesterday. So much in love. Jack, a young, handsome Senator, and herself, a vibrant twenty-four and ready for marriage. The honeymoon in romantic Acapulco, away from jangling phones and time-demanding politicians. And the groping, getting-to-know-you period, which wasn't easy because Jack was off on quick political trips. And then the night they had gone to a party, even though Jack was on crutches . . . and he had collapsed. The spinal injury, sustained playing football and worsened when his PT boat was mashed by a Japanese destroyer, had continued to haunt him. It was then she recalled that, during the nuptial mass in church, Jack had difficulty kneeling at the altar because of a sharp pain in his back. It had been an omen of troubles ahead. The second year . . . How could she forget the terror of seeing her beloved wracked with pain, hospitalized and given the last rites? A spinal operation, nip and tuck with paralysis and death. Yet there was sweetness to the bitterness. Jack, immobilized in the hospital and later at home, was in Jackie's hands day and night. She was more than his bride, she was also his loving, tender nurse. And there were long hours to talk, and plan, and aspire, and hope for good health . . . and, some day, for children, too. "In sickness and in health" ... so, the marriage ceremony went . . . and now she knew Jack needed her all the more. When Christmas came, Jack insisted on being with the rest of the Kennedys at Palm Beach. It was a family ritual, and he insisted on being taken out of the hospital on a stretcher and flown "How to Deal With Mental Problems" How to Deal With Mental Problems Mental and emotional illnesses are quite common.

Jackie realized, if she hadn't already, that his family meant so much to him, and she knew he could never be hers completely. She would have to share him with his relatives — a wonderful, warm, gregarious bunch who accepted her at once and called her The Queen. They loved her because she was Jack's wife and because she was so charmingly different. The third year . . . the year she became pregnant for the first time. Carrying the age-old yet always-new knowledge that there was another life stirring within her. Coming from a small family — she has only one sister — she yearned for children, and she couldn't help being overwhelmed by the Kennedy clan's unabashed love for big, noisy, active, swarming family life. She knew a baby would make Jack supremely happy, and she knew she had prayed faithfully for this miracle of love. When the doctor confirmed her guess, she was delighted, and, of course, Jack was overjoyed. But unfortunately, it was a doomed pregnancy. She felt tired, ill, distressed, and Jack was away so much . . . she suffered a miscarriage. It wasn't easy. Instead of a baby . . . nothing. She recovered slowly, and it was a year to remember . . . the third year of marriage— a critical year, according to marriage experts. The fourth year had been happy but sad, too. Jack's career was moving well, but he was terribly let down when he lost his bid for the Vice-Presidential nomination. He was tired, frustrated, disappointed, and he flew to the Riviera to rest and lick his career wounds. Jackie, left behind, waited for her baby patiently. The doctor had explained that her second pregnancy was coming along fine and the baby wasn't due for several weeks. But suddenly she went into labor prematurely, the doctor had to perform a Caesarean, and the baby was born dead. Jack flew back immediately, and never left her side. She knew once more how much Jack loved her, and she knew again how much he needed political success to be completely happy. The fifth year ... the year Caroline was born! They had given up their too-big house, Hickory Hill, in Virginia, and had moved into a smaller three-story Kennedy-owned brick house in the Georgetown section. They were now closer to Jack's Senate office, and Jackie felt more like a homemaker. She was pregnant again, and she was also trying so hard to make Jack more conscious of the more ordinary mechanics of living — like knotting his tie properly, remembering appointments, being punctual, wearing matching shoes, taking cash with him, warning her when he was bringing guests for dinner.
