mental ill patients were isolated from the outside world. • many were thought to be possessed by demons. • they were strapped to chairs and were blinded. • they were also drugged. Fig 8. Early treatments to "cure" disability were often brutal. Versions of the tranquilizer chair can still be found in some institutions.
anesthesia did not exist in the middle ages therefore patients had surgery while being awake. • This man had abdominal surgery. • it was too painful to survive. Fig 9. 15th-century manuscript illumination of a public dissection
