Polio
I want to talk to anyone who spent time at the Harry Anna Crippled Children's Home in Umatilla. And I'd love to talk to nurses and anyone who treated polio patients. Thanks!

My husband is a polio survivor - treated in Des Moines Iowa with Sister Kenny's method as well as an iron lung. So far at the age of 66 no residual problems.

You are right, my husband is from Arkansas confused Warm Springs, Ga. with Hot Springs Arkasas. I have a post card from The Little White House. My replies are always quick..too quick.My husband has some sad memories.

I was a patient in the UK - the new Salk vaccine was flown over to our county when there was an outbreak there, and I had two of the 3 shots. We suspect it was a live vaccine which caused paralysis for some months, but I subequently fully recovered. No effects thus far.
