Abstract

Mittag-Leffler’s illness in Tällberg was reported in the press. Aftonbladet said that he was convalescing but that his strength “had been significantly diminished,” that his fever had dropped, that his left lung had fully recovered, that the right lung was also expected to recover, and that Dr. Hildebrand in Rättvik was attending to the patient. A month later the Djursholm Tidning reported that Mittag-Leffler had practically regained his full health, but that he “could not go outdoors.” For his part, Mittag-Leffler experienced the illness as if he had truly hovered between life and death for a long time, as if the slightest breath of wind might extinguish “the flame of life,” as he expressed it. He had no doubt that it was his strong heart that had once again saved him.
