Dr. Cukrowicz:
Mrs. Venable, loving your neice as you do, you must know there's great risk in this operation. Whenever you enter the brain with a foreign object... Mrs. Venable:
Yes. Dr. Cukrowicz:
Even a needle thin knife. Mrs. Venable:
Yes. Dr. Cukrowicz:
In the hands of the most skilled surgeon... Mrs. Venable:
Yes, yes. Dr. Cukrowicz:
There is a great deal of risk. Mrs. Venable:
But it does pacify them, I've read that, it quiets them down. It suddenly makes them peaceful. Dr. Cukrowicz:
Yes that that it does do, but... Mrs. Venable:
But what? Dr. Cukrowicz:
Well it will be years before we know if the immediate benefits of the operation are lasting or maybe just passing or perhaps... there's a strong possibility that the patient will always be limited. Relieved of acute anxiety yes, but limited. Mrs. Venable:
But what a blessing Dr. To be just peaceful. To be just suddenly peaceful. After all that horror. After those nightmares. Just to be able to lift up their eyes to a sky not black with savage devouring birds
