This is incredible. Us old timers remember Don Ho the singer from Hawaii. He went to Thailand to get a new stem cell treatment for heart problems that is not approved of in the U.S. yet.
Story says he's doing fine but still has some time to go.
I pray he does well and is back at the microphone crooning.
Asia is kicking America and Europe's asses in medical advances. They're charging less than 10% for the treatments too! We're being fucked with health care costs and we've poured trillions of dollars into finding cures and ain't cured shit since Polio over 50 years ago.
Mark my words, in a few years, Asia will be the medical capitol of the world and cures for many illnesses will be found by them and bullshit pharmaceutical companies and health insurance companies here in the U.S. are gonna go out of business.
I needed dental work and hair treatment done. I got hold of one of the major hospitals in Thailand. I have many friends there. By the time I calculated how much it would cost to get the treatments it damn near was the same as the round trip ticket!
Guys I send to Thailand don't want to come home. Now I know why.
