Polio: Post-Polio Syndrome - Paperback

by Anne Elizabeth Nixon (Photographer), Anne Elizabeth Nixon (Author)

Many people suffer from having had polio in the 1940s and 1950s. With no problems for years, post-polio syndrome strikes as they reach older age. Little by little a weakening of their muscles shows up once again. I am one of those people. I'll tell you my story, as well as give you info that may improve your life. I've found it surprising the number of people the world over who are revealing they have the lessening of muscle strength after poliomyelitis. They were active and appeared strong and healthy, just like I did. There are many things to come to grips with, and we'll discuss them.
