MH>Darn, it's been such a long time since Polio was headline news! Back
MH>when you read about Polio all the time, there was more descriptive type
MH>information. As I recall it, there were several strains or varieties
MH>of Polio....it's the best way I can put it. Anyway, Bulbar Polio
MH>affected the respiratory system (whether in conjuction with other
MH>paralysis, I don't know). Bulbar Polio is what landed people in the
MH>"Iron Lungs".
Funny but after I sent this to you...they had a piece on TV...It was the
anniversary of cure of Polio.
MH>However, as I'm trying to read and type....it does not describe what
MH>the three different types are. Oh well, maybe someone else can come up
MH>with something more definitive.
That's the problem now a days...there isn't to many Dr.s that know
anything about it either....It has been cured to long....I guess when us
PPS'ers are gone....they won't have to think about it anymore...and I'm
glad but it doesn't make what life we have left any better....TTYL.
