Obviously, Frankel and those close to him were approached by Grening and the DRF to shed some light on the situation. Obviously, in the position that Dave Grening is in, he is able to gather information that many others are not privy to. Grening has a strong reputation with the DRF for his work, and it's quite obvious that if Frankel did not want to share the information with Grening, it's very likely he wants to keep this private and within his immediate family which can be expected in a time like this. He has every right to privacy, and even if someone were to know what is ailing him, or rumors were circulating as to what was ailing him, it's very much his own prerogative whether to speak to anyone regarding his condition, and in a paper such as the DRF where so much is public knowledge, if Frankel wanted his illness to be public, surely he would have given the information to Grening to be presented in that forum/manner.
