Colorized photo from 1915
Original Title: Wash. Asylum Hospital
Location: Washington, DC
The bedside manner, you don't see it much these days, the doctor comes over to you, checks some stuff out, gives you attention that you need. Ever wonder why it stopped? Why doctors just glance into your room handing it over to the nurse instead?
Well it all started here, right here in this asylum. The old lady see's a cute doctor, she pretends she's unconscious, worried, the doctor would come to see what happened to her.
The doctor would get closer and closer to her mouth to check her breathing and bam, she would drop a big wet one on the doctors mouth instead. Naturally the other ladies wanted some action and this would continue. Thus, because of this, we no longer have that dedicated care we see here.
