my thoughts. Do not fail to let me know the very worst. When you called me by phone I got out of bed to reply, but now I am quite well and my greatest hope now is to get to Chg. where I can do for him in a helpful way the many things necessary to his recover, but recovery seems to be hardly the word. our doctor here read your "splendid diagnosis" for so he called it, and he agreed absolutely with your view. He suggested Sanitarium and certain squiggle kinds of baths--some direct application to the poor suffering nerves! It made me sick at heart--the irony of it all! To Suggest baths &c with not one dollar! Doctor, have you ever investigated Cook County Hospital? Is there not a ward where indigent patients can be treated for a certain length of time? He must never go where he would be regarded a helpless charge! I would rather "a" crossed out death over & over in preference! If something could be done temporarily! but he must never be degraded to that level! We cannot have it, can we, Doctor? Oh please write me at once. I may be able to write definitely soon.

With kindest regards, Yours
