Camille really got the ball rolling today. Thanks for tell about your grandfather. I did visit Dr. White, but Dr. Barnes was my primary. Did anyone have a vision when Ann told her story about the wash tub? Dr. Barnes, one of three physician that I knew in Hamburg (White, Cammack and Barnes), stepped out of his office as I was running by. He knew me well because he had been giving me shots in the butt for years. Every time I had a cold mother would send me to Dr. Barnes and he would say, “lay down here and pull your pants down.” That was when he would pull out that long needle and insert it into the container of Penicillin that he got out of the, I called it an ice box, but it really was a refrigerator. Then when I would ask him the question that I knew he would lie about, “Dr. Barns, is this going to hurt?” he would say, “it is only going to sting a little.” Anyway, on this particular day, he had something to ask me. As it turned out he had a rabbit that he wanted to give me if mother would allow it. I said there would be no problem, but he insisted that I go and ask and if it was alright then I could come to his house later and pick up my new friend. For some reason mother allowed me to accept that rabbit, a Dutch breed that was black with white chest and blazed face, we became fast friends. Uncle Robert made Peter a cage. People that I didn’t know would come to town and ask if I was the kid that had the rabbit that followed me on a leash? They always wanted to see my black and white rabbit. Imagination is not limited, knowledge is.
