Tiger Woods Still has a Parasite…What will they
recommend next?
Surgery, Injections, Physical Therapy? None of that will address his real problem.
I wrote an article this past
April about how Tiger Woods has parasites.
The article can be read here
In light of his withdrawal from his most
recent golf tournament this past weekend, I am sorry he is going through what he is. And it does
not surprise me at all that the news is making news and focusing on his
withdrawal, his quest for Major Championships and will he or won’t he catch and
pass Jack Nicholas. The newest poll on
ESPN is about, “Will Tiger Woods ever win another Major?” I understand the storyline and it is
compelling enough to get people, even myself, to read about his latest
withdrawal. What I still have trouble
with is with all the money he makes both on and off the links, why is it no one
is offering to truly help him? I mean "truly help him" and address the true cause of his back condition? Is it because
they do not know about the parasite connection?
Is it because he is "Tiger Woods" and lives a very sheltered life and has
a small circle of people he trusts? Is
it because the people closest to him do not know any better and want to protect
their gravy train? I may never know the true answer and I am saddened by the lack of understanding. It is costing a person their life-long dream.
I’ll be honest. I am a Tiger Woods fan. Do I agree with some of the choices he has
made in his life? No, but it is his
life, not mine and who am I to pass judgment?
But when he plays golf, I am rooting for him because I am a fan of his
golf and what that represents. Actually,
I am a fan of anyone who excels at their chosen field, whether it is sports,
business, acting, relationship, etc. I admire
anyone who will devote 100 % of their focus on attaining a goal, even if I do
not agree with or understand why they would choose that as a goal. Human spirit seeks what it is driven to
seek. And we are all that way to one
degree or another. I would like to see
Tiger beat Jack. And I bet Jack would
like to see Tiger beat Jack. Why? Because it is the human spirit going to the
next level. Records are meant to be
broken. The next generation should
always be able to equal and best the previous.
It is what keeps life evolving and surviving.
Will Tiger Woods ever get the
true care he needs to remedy his low back condition? I do not know. My hope is, for anyone who is a fan,
yes. With the healthcare industry being
so focused on expensive treatments and no real solutions, my feelings are he
will go without finding a successful solution, will fall short of beating Jack
Nicholas’ Golf Majors and the story will be about how he had so much talent and
he wasted it with his life choices. It will not be about approaching health from a different perspective and finding a true solution because of the money to be made treating symptoms and making a living off of doing that. It is an industry. And industry must set and live up to industry standards. And right now the message is "Treat the symptom, make as much money off of treatment and testing as possible and use therapy to treat the symptom only and not the cause. And as things continue to get worse, then we have expensive surgery to fall back on." I am just sorry that the people who are in the public eye and can help create the changes we need in the healthcare industry are continuing to be a bi-product of the current system of mask, slash and burn.
I
will still root for Tiger until he stops playing competitive golf and I will always be a fan. Good luck Tiger!
