Brother Gives Blood to Save Sister Life at Hospital
At Wise Memorial Hospital in our town a judge from Wymore Nebraska, F B Crawford, donated his blood to his anaemic sister Miss May Crawford. The operation required no general anesthesia, only local cocaine. A vein from his arm was connected to her artery to transfuse blood for about fifteen minutes. Both siblings endured the procedure. May showed improvement as the judge remained pale but hopeful. The event, reported from the Omaha World Herald, ties to the Knight and Kniel families in our town.
