Professor Stokes, after a careful \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003einvestigation of his condition, declared that he could not live a week, though at the end \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eof that time the old soldier was still hanging on to life, ever visibly sinking. Stokes \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eassured the students who were making the rounds of his wards with him that the old \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eman had at most a day or two more to live, and yet at the end of some days he was still \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethere to greet them on their morning visits. After the way of medical students the world \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eover, though without any of that hard-heartedness that would be supposed ordinarily to \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ego with such a procedure, for they were interested in the case as a medical problem, the \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003estudents began to bet how long the old man would live.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9791041985753\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHarnessing the Power of Will for Health and Vitality\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9791041985753","offer_id":47651051635013,"sku":"9791041985753","price":18.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/258272e2-1a98-423d-ba70-21e804840060.jpg?v=1768460011","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/health-through-will-power-von-james-joseph-walsh","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
