Proof Women Never Run Out Of Eggs

[burtlancast]

I was reading Andrew Saul's article on the Shute brothers, Vitamin E pioneers, and their published autobiography from 1985 ( "The Vitamin E Story - The Medical Memoirs of Evan Shute") when i stumbled across this:

The Vitamin E Story surprised me with Chapter 12, a collection of rather funny real-life obstetrical experiences that Dr. Shute evidently just had to put down on paper. I’m glad he did, as the stories are both delightful and bizarre. There is the account of proof of ovulation in a 102 year old woman. There is the case of "cranial nerve neuralgia cured for two years by a hemorrhoidectomy. This shows the suggestive power of the knife." Then there is the surgeon who smoked during operations, the cigarette ash getting into the wound. And let’s not overlook the marriage ceremony performed during labor. "Uterine contractions imposed an odd punctuation to the responses, but the minister did most of the talking, fortunately."
