King David was now very old, and no matter how many blankets covered him, he could not keep warm [defective temperature regulation from Parkinson’s]. So his advisers told him, “Let us find a young virgin to wait on you and look after you, my Lord.” So they searched throughout the land of Israel for a beautiful young girl, and they found Abishag the Shunem and brought her to the King. The girl was very beautiful, and she looked after the king and took care of him. But the king had no sexual relations with her [autonomic nervous system dysfunction from Parkinson’s] (1st Kings 1: 1-4 NLT).
Some claim that this Scripture offers a clue that King David was the first described person with Parkinson’s disease. After his force retirement, he abundantly described the physical limitations of Parkinson’s disease. He even described despair, depression and social isolation. However, he offered suggestions to combat the effects of Parkinson’s that are just as applicable today as 3000 years ago. For more specific information, go to Amazon books and type in King David, Parkinson’s First Hero. Less interested? Just google it.
Many thanks, Ian, for yet another insightful contribution.
