C. 28801 DIPLOMATE AMERICAN BOARD OF ALLERGY AND IMMUNOLOGY March 7, 1979 President & Mrs. Jimmy Carter c/o Ms. Susan Clough The White House Washington, D.C. Dear President and Mrs. Carter: I read in the newspaper that Billy Carter was 1n the hospital with 'bro·n chitis. I also heard a little of his past history on Paul Harvey. Many times bronchitis is due to an allergy therefore an allergy work-up is necessary to know how to treat the patient. I do not know all of Billy's history or his doctor's findings however if he has such symptoms as wheezing and shortness of breath and it is not treated it will become worse. If it is at all possible I would like to know exactly what his symptoms are and who his physician is. I would like to offer my services tb both the physician and to Billy in any way that I can be of help. Thank you for your time and consideration of my requests. Sincerely,,? . f--l�./-.
