Mary Stone and Ida Kahn were the first female Chinese doctors
educated in Western medicine. Both women changed China forever.
This story shares their lifelong contributions to the China of
their day, and how patient by patient they ended ancient traditions
by producing positive results. Binding feet fell from fashion,
surgery became the best solution for tumors, and female medical
education saved many lives. Both physicians were born in Kiukiang,
now called Jiujiang, one of many pearls along the sometimes
over-flowing Yangtze River. Both were entrusted to missionaries.
Both children had something about them their parents saw as
mystical. We all became blessed because they took a course of
unprecedented action, covering more than half the globe, and spoke
to a simple way of facing impossible odds to make a difference."
