Yes! Such a great reminder that these old medical procedures were once modern. Can you think of something that we do today that might be seen as barbaric in 50 or 100 years time? For me: chemotherapy - which I hope will be replaced by less harsh but equally effective treatments in the future.
Wow. At that time this was modern and life saving.

In the Age of Misinformation, let's remember these headlines after the Titanic sank.
During wireless chatter, someone asked: "Are the Titanic passengers safe?” An answer came: "The ship is being towed to Halifax and everyone is ok." That 2nd transmission didnt refer to the Titanic, hence the error.
