subject: Question

MH>-> Funny but after I sent this to you...they had a piece on TV...It was
MH>-> anniversary of cure of Polio.
MH>I missed that.  When was the program shown.  Did they say anything
MH>about the different types of polio?
No, they just mentioned them.....It was the anniversary of the Salk
vacine...they were promoting the "March of Dimes".
MH>-> That's the problem now a days...there isn't to many Dr.s that know
MH>-> anything about it either....It has been cured to long....I guess when
MH>-> PPS'ers are gone....they won't have to think about it anymore...and I
MH>-> glad but it doesn't make what life we have left any better....TTYL.
MH>I never thought of it that way.  You can't be up to par on something
MH>that doesn't exist anymore.  There may be more advanced treatment now
MH>if polio should occur again (God forbid!), but there wouldn't be enough
MH>doctors with practical experience in treating it.
The most that they have discovered is that they can only make us a
little more comfortable....dealing with the pain.....They can't stop or
help with the deterating of the muscles or other problems that we are
facing...I think it would be frustrating for the Drs as well as us...I
have a feeling that is why the Dr's don't like dealing with the
problems....If Polio came back IT would have to be a very different
thing and they would just put another name on it....LOL
