Some Things That a Mother Should Know about Medicine, Health and Disease Prevention, Palliation Cure (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Some Things That a Mother Should Know About Medicine, Health and Disease Prevention, Palliation Cure How many human bodies have you ever seen whose mechanism, whose component parts were perfect? I can hear some mother say in her heart as she reads this question; I did feel or I do feel that my own little baby has a nearly perfect body, a nearly perfect mechan ism. Possibly that mother is not far from right, but how long let me ask, does that little body, generally speaking, remain in that nearly perfect condition? If not, why not and who or what is to blame? Some circumstance beyond human control perhaps, something wisdom and judg ment might have modified possibly, what time and atten tion would have avoided probably. How much is this little human body worth? Money wouldn't buy it Of you, mother, now would it? How much would you take for one little finger, one little toe, one little atom of that mental sufficiency? If it is worth more than money, is it worth more than time, is it worth more than your very best effort of mind and body? If God has entrusted a little human being to you do you realize how grave the charge? Do you realize you must answer to your maker, it's maker, for molding, modifying, making of body and mind and soul so long as you are it's guardian or partial guardian?
