I find such voyeurism deeply distasteful, and personally, I really don't think it belongs on HN.

Car-crash "journalism" at its absolute worst. Please consider deleting it.

With invasions of privacy like this I seriously hope I never, ever become famous.

This is a duplicate submission. I can't find the other one so I suspect it was flagged. Someone posted in it a link indicating this is a faked pic anyway.

Edit: However, I did find (via google) the link that was submitted indicating it was faked: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=...

The previous submission got deleted, I think by the submitter rather than flagged dead.

I hope this submitter shows the same taste.

Flagged for exactly this reason. He clearly wants privacy surrounding his health. Let's honor that here, at least.
