I am apparently having cardiac problems that will be diagnosed in near future, as I am having some definite symptoms.
My dad, who is 78, suffers from horrible chronic pain from bone spurs in his cervical spine (neck), in which a second surgery has been ruled out, has Parkinson Disease, and has as a result of the bone spurs pinching his auditory nerves has 95% hearing loss. He also has pervasive degenerative osteoarthritis.
My mom, who is 77, suffers with repeated bouts of multiple lung infections that have not responded to any type of antibiotic therapy, and her 5 ft frame has sunk to 100 lbs, maybe less.
But there is good news for both of my parents; my father may be a good candidate for a Medtronic neuromodulation system for pain management, and as for my dear mother, although there are no clinics (but there is research going on) in the U.S. concerning Phage Therapy--which in the State of Georgia and in Poland, there is a 80-90% cure rate (one seriously ponders why on earth is this not being pursued here with all due diligence?)
I contacted Texas A&M's Phage Therapy Research Department in recent past, and they told me that there was hope it would be developed here in the U.S. once all the bugs were worked out of the treatment; but reading the email I received from A&M led me to believe the only reason Phage Therapy was not already being widely used here was because of the usual money-hungry squabble in the circle of pharmaceutical companies and of course, the CDC and the FDA jumping into the mix (yes, understand they need to make sure the treatment is safe, but you know the other). What a discourse of horror, to make people suffer needlessly.
My dear fellow Freepers, thank you so much if you would keep us in your prayers. I will do the same for you.

My thoughts and prayers for you and yours
Genetic are not destiny. Though your parents are now beset by the woes that are often concurrent with advancing age (I am of about the same approximate age bracket), if they have not yet begun in your personal stage of life, there is a good possibility you may escape a similar decline. And even though your parents are both subject to what may be debilitating conditions, at least a long enough signal to make necessary preparations has been given.
If you are prepared for the storm, it may not be easier, but there is far greater probability that after coming out the other side, it shall have been a time of personal growth and learning, for no person is ever too old to benefit.
Dear God, please heal and sustain Patriot777 and his family.
Prayers for you and your parents.
