[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 402706, member: 6546"] DDD-- This is so true! The wealthy and the elite have top-notch medical care. Doctors strive to do the utmost to restore these folks to their previous state of health. For the rest of us? We are restored to "good enough" and sent home. Some years back, docs told my grandfather that he was too old for prostate surgery, but they would do their best to make him "comfortable". Grandpa threw a fit! He pointed out that then-Buffalo Bills coach Marv Levy had just had the EXACT same procedure and he was years older than my grandfather. Grandpa declared that what was good enough for Coach Levy was good enough for him! The good news is that he argument prevailed. Grandpa got the prostate surgery and has been doing well... How many other men died after being given the same "too old for surgery" story? [/QUOTE]
