HEALTH NOTES
Johnny might have been his name,
although it doesn’t necessarily have
to be. He had never been able to play
like his schoo)mates because he had
been crippled most of his life.
His parents had taker him to a doc
tor who had examined him and told
them that he needed specialized treat
ment. But Johnny's parents had just
an average inceme and eould not aff
ord the expensive treatment negeded to
make Johnny well again.
Then it was their doctor told them
about the services available through
the Crippled Children’s Division of the
Greorgia Department of Public Health.
The doctor got in touch with the
Publit Health Nurse who in turn con
tacted Johnny's parents. Application
was made to the State Office for fin
ancial aid for treatments for Johnny.
Soon the State Uffice had Johany in
Atlanta for examination at one of the
Children’s clinics, where it was found
Johnny should receive treatments for
some time in preparation for an oper
ation which will speed his recovery.
He is now under treatment from bome
specialists who are familiar and skill
ed im treatments of ills like Johnny's.
Actually Johnny isn’t this child's
name but he is from Wilkinson Cou
nty and his case is just one of many
which have a very good chance for a
happy ending.
Many, many more Johnnys are re
ceiving such treatment that will make
them active again. And twiece as
many parents are happy, for like the
most of us, they could not afford the
specialized treatment necessary. This
is just another service offered you by
