Again, I suggest that interviewees not get wrapped around the actual question but the reason behind the question. At DAL, its honesty, forthrightness, willingness to accept past failures, etc. They don't really care about your past sick leave, they care if you are going to lie about it or try, in some way, to dodge that question.
Bottom line: mess up, fess up.
