Two dozen doctors? Really?
I saw Southern Comfort and thought it was an excellent movie. I thought what happened to Robert Eads was extremely unfortunate. But saying he was refused treatment by two dozen doctors sounds like an exaggeration. Yes, I will accept that he was refused treatment by one or more than one doctor. But if it was me, and I was refused by the second doctor, I would have reevaluated my process--because clearly something isn't working.

All I'm saying is that if you are going to make a fantastic claim like saying he was refused treatment by TWO DOZEN doctors--that you cite a source. A source other than a friend of a friend told me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bill790 (talk • contribs) 15:18, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

See the deleted scenes on the DVD. Eads discusses his difficulty getting treatment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kellyprice (talk • contribs) 04:06, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Sorry to resurrect this; I'm here because Shakesville is linking to this article on occasion of the "Transgender Day of Remembrance." The source that the sentence cites says it was "over a dozen doctors refused to treat him," not "over two dozen." I've modified the sentence to reflect this.
