  • Letter from Dr. Emma B. Wharton to LP RE: Thanks LP for the interesting talk that he gave before the Orange County Medical Association. States that she was especially interested in the abnormal hemoglobin of sickle cell anemia. Inquires if there could also be an abnormality of the “stroma” of the red cell of this condition. Mentions two other hematological conditions, Mediterranean Anemia or ‘Cooley’s’ Anemia and Congenital Hemolytic Icterus, which have a comparable hereditary background and warrant similar studies along the lines of what LP discussed. Suggests that studies should also be conducted about Addisonian Pernicious Anemia. States that these conditions are similar because the bone marrow produces abnormal cells and they have a common hereditary background. States that he thought that the common abnormality must be in the stroma upon which the hemoglobin is embedded and he had not conceived that the hemoglobin itself could be different. States that it opens up a large field of investigation of similar hematological conditions. [Letter from LP to Wharton March 28, 1950] [Filed under LP Speeches: 1950s.9]
