1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [23], this we have had before.
2. As we find, conditions as respecting the attempt to save the body-developments are rather serious.
3. For as we find the organs of the pelvis are out of position and are in such a state of strain that the fetus forces are causing a drainage that produces irritations, as well as a great deal of pain.
4. It is, of course, close to the third month, as indicated. Hence it becomes the more serious for all conditions.
5. As we find, it would be necessary for hospitalization. With precautions it MAY be able to save the situation.
6. But with the leakages there is, of course, the danger of there becoming infectious forces; thus making for conditions hard to be dealt with. For septic poisoning would make for conditions that would become serious - or separations.
7. As we find then, the sooner there is the care in the hospital and under the direction of a surgeon, with precaution taken, the better.
8. Gaither, as we find here, would be preferable if local conditions are taken into consideration.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) Is operation necessary or advisable for the good of this body? (A) As just indicated, if there are the dangers of septic poisoning from the leakages and position of the womb itself as related to the rest of the system, it will be necessary - to save the body, see? Under the directions of hospitalization, then, the body-developments within the body may POSSIBLY be saved - but it doesn't appear so in the present.
11. (Q) What type of operation? (A) What type! To DRAIN the conditions - remove the foetus! As just indicated, then, the sooner the body is under the

direction of the physician, the better - or the more possibility there is for saving the situations.
