The same process involving the thyroid gland has happened several times in his life, and in each of those cases it has repaired itself. [...]

Instead Ruburt is involved in our endeavor, and his daily life entwined in the search that fiction cannot approach. [...]

(While moving about in the kitchen during break Jane got this within: “Ruburt is only now beginning to start upon his life’s work.” [...]

[...] My own reaction to the events in our lives over the years was that consciously we had reached limits, and that it was beholden upon the rest of the personality—Jane’s especially—that it recognize this and back off enough from its own goals so that the physical body could recover, at least enough to ensure survival and a working life in which it could deal with life’s daily goals, and arts, too.

The very nature of the ego and of the personality is formed by the ability to choose between actions or stimuli; but life as it is not connected to a highly differentiated ego, rejoices in all stimuli, as sensation, whether it is pleasurable or painful, for these distinctions do not exist in your terms.
