Summary

The December 1974 hospital notes identify Skip McDonough as Edna G. McDonough, an outpatient at University Hospital in Ann Arbor, and report Grace Nackerman home after cataract surgery at Little Traverse Hospital.

Evidence and limits

These are brief patient notices, not medical records. The printed address is not reproduced, and no precise dates, diagnoses beyond the notice, or later outcomes are inferred.

Sources
