(StraightShooterNews.com) – The acting community and fan series are sad to learn that beloved Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson faces a series of health battles, including Alzheimer’s and a blood disorder.
See the tweet below.
Phil Robertson, the 77-year-old star of “Duck Dynasty,” is battling multiple health issues that have left his family and fans deeply concerned.
His son, Willie Robertson, revealed that Phil is dealing with a complex array of medical problems, including early-onset Alzheimer’s, a blood disorder, possible ministrokes, and a fractured back.
Moreover, the blood disorder causing Phil to produce too much blood has been particularly troubling. This condition thickens his blood, potentially leading to ministrokes and affecting his overall health.
Willie explained, “He’s got a blood disorder, and then he’s got the mental issues that could be early [on-set] Alzheimer’s … and probably some ministrokes because of his blood. And so, it could be some stroke stuff happening, that has happened.”
Adding to Phil’s struggles is a fractured back, causing intense pain and limiting his mobility. His son described the severity of the situation, saying:
“Especially in any situation where he’s getting up from the seated position or laying position, [it’s] super stressful for him, too, and very painful. We’ve got several other things we’re looking at, trying some different medications.”
Despite these overwhelming health challenges, Phil’s faith remains unshaken. The Robertson family, known for their strong Christian beliefs, is leaning on their faith more than ever during this difficult time.
Willie shared a touching insight into his father’s resilience, stating, “He still quotes the Bible and still talks about his faith in God, so I think that’s been comforting and something that he hasn’t lost yet.”
In the face of adversity, they continue to prioritize their faith and family values, demonstrating strength from a solid spiritual foundation.
Phil’s son emphasized the importance of their faith during this challenging time, saying:
“In these times, that’s where the faith component really steps up. This is what we’re about, this is what he’s living for and for the hope that there’s something beyond.”
As Phil battles these health setbacks, his story resonates with many Americans who face similar struggles with aging loved ones.
The Robertson family’s openness about their patriarch’s condition sheds light on the challenges many families face in caring for elderly relatives while maintaining their faith and values.
Their example serves as a reminder of the importance of family, faith, and perseverance in the face of life’s most difficult challenges.
