I've come across the papers doctors have written for their medical societies that add interesting tidbits. Thank you for the link.

There's a blog that has medical info for authors. https://redwoodsmedicaledge.com/ I've found that to be helpful at times.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08516493326566981116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152821032321828999.post-66956312448018575922022-05-10T06:47:57.807-07:002022-05-10T06:47:57.807-07:00I agree.

It really helped me to understand what it might have been like for a doctor in those days. <br />I'm glad you enjoyed the post.

And to be a doctor; I did a lot of research for my story, No Luck At All. Creel was a doctor and so much of what we know he didn't. Thankfully, my research wasn't just books. I have a friend who is a retired air force nurse and she was a wealth of info, especially the germ info you mentioned. <br />Thanks for sharing, Doris!
