A descendant of the personal doctor of the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler has published several personal letters revealing how Hitler was terrified when treated for voice problems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Carl Otto von Eicken – German specialist in nose, throat and ear – has treated Hitler several times during his 10 years of service since 1935.<\/p>\n
The letters were discovered by Robert Deopgen, von Eicken’s great-grandson, who found them while searching the family archives for an educational project.<\/p>\n
It testifies to Hitler’s horror of serious illness. “If something goes wrong, I absolutely must know,” Hitler told the doctor after their first consultation in May 1935, according to the documents.<\/p>\n
They demonstrate the importance he attached to his voice, which he used in propaganda speeches to increase support for the Nazi cause.<\/p>\n
Another shows how von Eicken advised Hitler to take vacations to protect his voice.<\/p>\n
In no case von Eicken mentioned the fact that he was caring for a man believed to be responsible for millions of deaths.<\/p>\n
When asked by Russian investigators why he had not killed Hitler, von Eicken replied: “I was his doctor and not the killer.”<\/p>\n
Adolf Hitler is believed to have killed himself in a bunker in Berlin in 1945 after being surrounded by the Soviet Red Army.<\/p>\n
But many theories are circulating that say the Nazi may have fled to Latin America as happened to many German army chiefs at the end of the war.<\/p>\n
