      I visited around the same time, 1967, and remember it looking different. Wooden steps and the smell of age. I remember the room being smaller and darker and the bloody pillow.

    I interviewed most of the physicians who worked on Kennedy in Dallas back in 1992. That was a fascinating exercise to hear the various perceptions of each doctor. I so wish I could do the same with the Lincoln physicians.
    For what the state of medicine was at the time, and what he had to work with, Dr. Leale did an amazing job heading up the treatment of Lincoln.
    The gentleman giving the presentation does a fabulous job. I'm very, very familiar with Lincoln's treatment and this gentlemen's enthusiasm made it seem like new material. A great resource for the DC historical community.

      They did not know about microbes. No hand washing, gloves etc. When Garfield was assassinated in 1881 (Robert Lincoln was nearby), infections ended up killing him.

    In response to increased intracranial pressure the pulse goes down and the blood pressure up. Evacuating the clot allowed the intracranial pressure to go down and hence, the pulse go up.

    Interesting fact about Major Rathebone. He declined mentally after the assassination and ultimately went mad and killed his wife Clara in 1883 and was put in an insane asylum.

    When clot and tissue removed, Lincoln’s heart rate increased. Is it possible the clot and debris were pressing on brain stem? With their removal pressure was decreased which allowed increase heart rate. I don’t know exactly how the bullet travelled, but could be a possibility?!

      In terms of American history, you are right. Imagine if Lincoln had lived and finished his term, what a better deal for this country. I thought of another shot that was the worst for world history: the 1914 assasination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. It was the spark that ignited World War I. Warmongers that opened the door for Hitler.
