...Ira is about the same age; his shoulders, hands, hips and knees have all bothered him for years. Unlike Tony, he likes physical therapy. I've been warning him about letting the problems go too long, especially the numb hands, but since the '90s he has refused every procedure. About four months ago, something changed with him too.
