And the cataract operation he is waiting for-------Medicare does not allow the state-of-the art cataract lens.

If you want the really good lens, you pay out of your pocket.

Or, too old for a heart transplant-------have a friend who is alive because of a heart transplant------he was about 55 and received the heart of a young man killed in a car accident as he himself was failing rapidly after his retirement as a minister.

Amazingly now, he is keeping his farm going as a 20 year old would do. It is truly a miracle.

Also know of a musician who got a heart transplant in his late 80's but only because his son was a doctor and got him in for a transplant. He will be playing into his hundreds.

Under Obamacare and medicare both of these men would have been rejected.
