LED HOSPITAL MOVE
Dr. Johnson is the man respon
sible for erection of Dunn Hospital,
Inc. Right after he came to,Dunn,
he saw the need for a hospital and
went to work. This dream came
true 12 years ago when the institu
tion first opened its doors. ‘ ' 1
For about nine years until the
rotating stff system was inaugura
ted he served as chief of start.
He’s prominent in the various local,
district and State Medical Societies
and has held various offices.

thne passes quickly for him be
cause this is a “game.”
Hie promise of going to sum
mer YMCA camp turned out to be
quite an Incentive for work. His
physiotherapist hammers at this
’ theme as she puts him through his
exercises in the warm-water pool.
i “This next one is your summer
-1 camp exercise, Charlie.” she’ll say;
“let’s see what you can do.” v
And he will strain and work to
stretch the muScleS because he has
not forgotten her promise. IF he
develops the arm sufficiently to
take a week away from the treat
ments, he will go to camp this sum
mer.
Missing a grade in school is lia
ble to be your child,’s greatest [
worry if he is subjected to a long
illness. After nearly four months
out of school, Chuck was convinced
he would lose a grade.
1 The thought of going backward 1
into a class with "little kids” was
1 almost overwhelming: and because
: of his physiotherapy treatments
> three days a week plus a state of
' nerves that always follows a seri
l ous polio attack, he was not per
mitted to return to school.
“ Instead, the school system sent
us a very talented understanding,

Herman, whose whole day was spent
1 in home teaching for confined-chil
dren.

- to get him home from the hospital

. school lesson, and this remarkable
■ woman did more for him in one
• hour than we could have done in
• i ten. By the third part of his
l , semester he was abreast of th"

grade. I

: Something else for which wc are

t on Chuck by the orthopedist, be
! cause it has provided our son with

After a thorough check of all
