"The-~conviction now lies deeply on Britain's conscience that the King has been monstrously over- worked in its service, that he 1s cracking under the strain, and that only some drastic easing the burden can be of real help to him" says British writer John Cotton. The first major signs of what this hard 'work was doing to: the King became apparent in 1948, Cotton points out, when he was ordered to rest. But in March 1949 he had to undergo an opera- _ tion to free the flow of blood to his right foot--what medical men call a lumbar sympathectomy, "No diagnosis of the disease for which the operation was perform- ed has been made offical, but there ° seems little doubt that it was Buerger's disease (which narrows the arteries and cuts off circula- tion). The operation tould at best afford relief for a time. In almost all cases the inflammation builds up again and normally the affected limb has te be amputa- ted." Cotton quotes a London special- ist on circulatory diseases, such as that suffered by the Kink: "If the British nation and the rest of the Commonwealth knew the full facts about the King's health and understood how he drives himself to his health's detriment, they would insist that he take a year from duty. It would pro- long the King's life by at least Len years and it would do more to slowdown; "if not halt, the basic trouble in his leg than any other thing." Sa The King's stubbornness .of character, his steady refusal fo take things more easily and his complete submergence in his job were the overriding factors in the development of his illness, says Cotton. "Come sickness, come health, come holidays, come Christmas with his family, the King's state duties remain as relentless and re- morseless as fate itself." Normal- ly they include: Seven hundred public appear- ances a year, inost of them in heavy uniform, some in heavy state.dress; personally meeting an average of tewenty people a day-- seven hundred a year, sometimes meeting more than two hundred at a single funnction; traveling at least twenty thousand miles a "year in England alone."
