But the same thing was mentioned in other stories across the country, like one that said the doctor "sent for the electric light company's pulmotor." Apparently fire houses, police, and hospitals eventually purchased the machine, but electric companies were the first to provide it to the public. Very interesting! It's wonderful that it saved the Walnosky brothers. I hope they had wonderful lives (I just might do some digging to find out!)Joanne Cowdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03393984608033941905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6038703305246040743.post-14840393818179363402016-12-08T11:11:24.371-05:002016-12-08T11:11:24.371-05:00How very sad!

And, I'm amazed they were able to be resuscitated after so long, though I guess that sometimes happens when internal organs have been slowed down through extremely cold temperatures.Dana Leedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09387705697369311607noreply@blogger.com
