the PARKLANDER<br />
By Sharon Kornreich<br />
Good Medicine<br />
In this technological age, it seems as if there are new medical<br />
advances coming out virtually every day. Surgical procedures are<br />
becoming more sophisticated and advances are being made in<br />
combating autoimmune disease like multiple sclerosis. Doctors<br />
are working hard to find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease and, of<br />
course, the battle against cancer continues.<br />
Just a few decades ago, it was nearly impossible to imagine<br />
the transplantation of human organs. Today, it is possible to replace<br />
the inner ear, the cornea, glands, blood vessels, muscles, nerves,<br />
bone marrow, blood, liver, kidney, lungs and heart, among other<br />
organs. Artificial joints can be constructed to repair the hips or other<br />
joints of people and animals who are aging or have had accidents.<br />
Every day we learn more about nutrition and the importance<br />
of eating the proper foods, not to mention the value of supplements<br />
and vitamins. Holistic health care has grown into a multi-million<br />
dollar business and weight management and exercise have moved<br />
to the forefront of our conciousness.<br />
In this edition of the <strong>Parklander</strong>, we invite you to take a<br />
look at some medical and health issues, from newborn care to the<br />
utilization of robotics in surgery to caring for the elderly and the<br />
value of hospice care.<br />
Our medical section begins on <strong>Page</strong> 16.<br />
CLARIFICATION<br />
A caption on the People Watching page in December’s edition<br />
was inaccurate. In the photo of football player Nicholas Marill and<br />
his sister, Marissa, the caption should say that Mom Joanna and<br />
Step-mom Dawn are proud of Nick.<br />
