NEEDLESS TRAGEDY About three years ago a house wife began to feel unable to per form her usual duties; she con sulted a physician, who found a small tumor of the uterus. She was about 46. The doctor kept her under observation, saying "I can remove the thing any time, but will cure without operation, if possible." He observed that the tumor grew rapidly, in spite of his pal liative measures. The patient grew dissatisfied, and changed doctors. The new one paid no attention to the tumor, and said she had dia betes, placing her on a strict diet at once. Not feeling any better as time went on, the patient had the "staff chemist" of a quack insti tution make a urinalysis: this self-styled "expert" discovered that the patient had Bright's di sease ! . . . Time went on—dragged on. Haemorrhages set in, which with the diet, greatly weakened the poor woman. A third doctor said it was "the change" and that, "all women were troubled that way." On advice from her second | physician, she went to a hospital in the nearby city. Here she was subjected to a clinical diagnosis, and was told that it was not ad visable to do anything radical at that time. She returned home and kept on dieting—and losing. She applied to me about one week ago at this writing. I found absolutely no diabetes or Bright's disease. A search for the source of the bleeding revealed cancer, involving nearly every organ within the pelvis, and long past the stage when operation could do more than hasten the end! She has no prospect of living over six months, if that long. . . . Had this growth been removed PROMPTLY by the first physi cian—and he was capable—she might be well today; but the vi tally precious interval has passed, and by neglect and utter ignor ance of conditions. Unless one knows that it is NOT a malignancy, it is better to operate than to take chances. Re member that.
