The Value of the Mayo Brothers
<p><strong>It's the Mayo Brothers—doctorin's the game. They're not like the others who get all the blame! When your health is in trouble you can call them on the double. They're smarter than the others—you'll be hooked on the Brothers! Unh!</strong></p><p>Join us once more as Bambi Chambers reads us a bedtime story about doctors who not only believed in advancing medical science, but only charging patients what they can afford. This time it's The Value of Sharing: The Story of the Mayo Brothers. In this children's biography from the 1980s we meet a pair of magical talking scissors and take a trip to the circus for no reason at all. The boys grew up holding ether-soaked rags on patients' faces while their Dad performed surgery on the kitchen table and their Mom read them medical journals as bedtime stories, or at least that's Jamie's interpretation! </p><p>Support the show and stay tuned with us on social media and discover more on our website: <a href="http://www.chainsawhistory.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.chainsawhistory.com</a></p>
