In 1911, two wealthy sisters submitted themselves to alternative medical treatment for various ailments.

So why did one of them die within 2 months and the other barely make it out with her own life? Listen to the tale of the so-called "Dr." Hazzard and her peculiar cure that did more harm than good.
