Seriously Burned Boy Saved By Milk Of Human Kindness
Pittsburgh—(U.P).—Strangers from all over the country may have saved the life of Mike Calfi, 14, a kid who lost the will to live.
His former playmates and neighbors gradually forgot about Mike after his body was badly burned by a searing explosion of cleaning fluid last July. Their once frequent visits to the hospitals and cards finally ceased.
Heartbroken because "nobody writes to me any more," Mike said "I want to die."
Doctors and nurses at West Penn hospital had no answers for the youngster whose once healthy 98- pound frame had wasted away to about half that weight under his bulky bandages.
Then word of his plight got out. Letters, telegrams, postcards and telephone calls poured in from all over this country and Canada.

Screen star Celeste Holm called
from New York. Ex-boxer Billy
Conn also chatted with him over
the telephone. A Baltimore, Md,
boy promised "to get my dad" to
buy Mike some books. A letter from 107 boys and girls in an Atlanta school invited him to "stop in and see us" when he gets well.
Doctors said the response was just what Mike needed. "The letters restored his faith and courage," they said. "He's got a new lease on life."
