INTRODUCTION

You may recall seeing photos in the mid-1950 s of a girl

named Winifred who was the March of Dimes poster girl. Her

sweet sad rice, huge crutches and cumbersome leg braces raised

millions of dollars for the March of Dimes. Unfortunately after

two and a half years of medical therapy, she was given up as an

incurable case. Her grandparents took her to see Dr. Lewis

Robertson, a chiropractor. In fewer than six months, Winifred

was walking without braces or crutches thank to chiropractic

care.

The irony of this story is that not one dollar of the millions

she raised for the March of Dimes went to pay for the chiropractic

care which allowed her to walk again.l Was it a mere coincidence,

a spontaneous remission or simply a miracle? Read on.

On December 13, 1988 Dr. Greg Johnson of Austin, Texas

and his wife were expecting their first children-- six-week prema-

ture twins. Dr. Johnson is a chiropractor and told his wife s

obstetrician they wanted a completely natural delivery without for-

ceps or medication. Britney, the first twin, had a high forceps

delivery, bruising her head and face and causing a blood clot on the

head (cephalohematoma). The doctor also used twisting (torsional,"

stress) on her neck during the delivery. Courtney, the second twin,

was born without incident. The girls were 3 lb/6 oz. and 3 lb/8 oz.

respectively. They were scheduled to be kept in the hospital neona-

tology department until they were at least five pounds in weight.

Within thirteen days of delivery Britney became very jaun-

diced. Her eyes were very yellow, and she had periods where her

breathing stopped (apnea). The medical doctors were monitoring

her blood and noticed she had hemolytic anemia, a condition where

the red blood cells which carry oxygen were being destroyed faster

than they could be replaced. This, coupled with the apnea, could

have been fatal. The doctors wanted to perform a complete blood

transfusion, which would give her normal blood but would not

change the problem of the new blood cells being quickly destroyed.
