Dr. Murphy was theoutstanding surgeon in the United States at that time. Head oftheRush Medical School of Surgery. The surgical department there. And he was diagnoses as -- oh, it was something else. It wasn't Burgher's. IT was dianoses as-- I know it as well as I know my own name. But can't say it. It's similar to Burghers. And because he had never treated a condition of that kind, it waS quite rare in those days, -- He md heard about, he had read about it but he hadn 't seen it. And because my Dad didn't have the money -- he gave him a card which admitted him into his office any time he wanted to come up there. And he studied this condition. It kept getting sores and worse. He'd have sores in his toes, there, sort of like gangrene setting in there. And finally, Murphy decided to operate, to amputate the foot. And my Dad went to the hospital and that night, they had a big railroad accident |
