M-Uscha.Willy Preidel Prag-Rusin, 11 November 43 - V e r w a t u n g- Heinrich Himmler-Kaserne M-Pz.Gren.Ausb. u. Ers.Btl.2 22 To the Reichsärztekammer z.Hd.des Herrn Reichsgesundheitsführer Dr. C o n t i B e r l i n I allow myself to present to Mr. Reichsgesundheitsführer an unprecedented case of waste of precious German blood, which one could probably or ill overwrite "The path of suffering of a mother with her child": we, my wife and I hung on this little Peter, how only two happy people can hang on to a wanted child.Peterle was a boy as we were to him One day, he was barely 2 months old, walking his ear as my wife stayed with her parents in the home.She immediately went to an ear specialist (Dr.Meier,Techen/Sudetenland, who treated the child about 3 weeks.He said that the child had only enjoyed something in the ear and that now has to be done by cleaning out the ear every day. But one day the child got a bump behind the ear and the doctor immediately advised my wife to take the child to the hospital in charge of me in Prague.My wife drove ao the same day and arrived in Prague at about noon, whereupon she immediately went to the relevant i hospital.The doctor there directed my wife into the ear clinic of the German Charles University. Prag, Karlsplatz, noting that the child had to be operated on the same day.So my wife went there with the child.It became early in the afternoon.The doctor on duty ordered the operation only for the next day.My wife was expelled to a room where about 15 women of all ages and various diseases were lying and should be treated. Since the supply of milk was used up on the journey (my wife, who would have liked to have done so from the heart, could not breastfeed because of a breast infection) my wife asked the sisters (checht he) to drink something for the little one, but today there is nothing more to be desired. Inmates to stick to and narrowed more and more the good will of a woman to not bother others, one--which was already exhausted with the fear of the child and the hardships of the day anyway.Since she was not allowed to light up, my wife Y had to carry the child to the Locus at night to wrap it and because it screamed because of the pain, go on the walk. Then came the operation, which survived the child well.It was taken to the children's clinic of the D.Karls University on the same day.The doctor in the ear clinic said that it needed only about 12 days of the diet to prevent nutritional disorders.When my wife and I came to the child's hospital, we were asked to reject us at first.Then you said that the Ohrenklinik had already agreed with the child hospital that the child would be admitted.After some telephonic relapses, poor childab could find the place for his gene.On the 2nd day and on the 3rd day, the child was admitted to the hospital.
