Near the end of the film, Slade tells Thatcher's son he's sending him to Australia to a clinic run by "Sister Elizabeth Kenny" (a nurse) to cure his polio caused paralysis. Such a nurse did exist and had developed an effective therapy to cure paralysis. However an American stricken with polio couldn't travel there to visit her. Her methods needed to be employed immediately upon contracting the disease and such a journey would take too much time. American patients were treated by their local doctor or nurse who'd read up extensively on her methods.
