Alright, so, yeah, stuff.

So I did finally finish the thesis. Had to, of course, for the end of the semester and so I could graduate. At any rate, I will be revising it on my own, and I am considering continuing my research, because I never did get Hollis Hendrickson's full story and there are still so many records from the hospitals to look through. I did, however, answer most of my questions, even if I never did resolve absolutely the question about appendectomies. Yet there is little evidence that they were doing the 'Mississippi appendectomy' up here, and instead there is enough evidence that they really did remove the appendix of a patient already undergoing a procedure in the same bodily region.

So a draft will be ready to be read in due time, to any fellow researchers or anyone else who may be interested.
