Kervorkian's Internship At Pontiac General Hospital

Kervorkian took the spotlight across the nation which led to the rejection from the University of Michigan Medical Care. However, he still continued his internship at the Pontiac General Hospital and later conducted new experiments there. While he was there, he heard about a Russian Medical Team transfusing blood from corpses into living people who were trying to save their lives. Kervorkian teamed up with another medical terminologist named Neal Nicol, who assisted him in this experiment. This experiment was very successful and Jack believed that this could be the difference between if someone lives or dies in the battlefield. If blood from a blood bank was unavailable, doctors could use Kervorkian’s experiment to transfuse the blood from a corpse
Later on, he excelled into setting up his own clinic near Detroit, Michigan. His business unfortunately failed, and Jack headed out to California to work two part-time pathology jobs in Long Beach. Both of these jobs also ended quickly and Jack concluded that his career was doomed with physicians who feared his profound ideas. Kervorkian was said to of “retired” and devote his time to a film project about Handel’s Messiah and research his death-row campaign. As of 1970 he was still jobless and broke off his relationship with his soon to be wife who lacked self-discipline. He was homeless, living on the street off of canned foods and periodically sleeping in his car. With no one to live with and not having a job he became desperate. Kervorkian was determined to better his life and find ways to make his research worth trying. Around 1985 he returned to Michigan. where he wrote a history of experiments on executed humans. This was eventually published in the Journal of the National Medical Association after many other journals rejected
