 I AM READING DR. RICHARD BRUNO BOOK ' THE POLIO PARADOX " UNDERSTANDING AND TREATING POST-POLIO SYNDROME ! HAS ANYONE READ THIS BOOK ? I SEE MYSELF IN SOME CHAPERS AND NOT IN OTHERS . I MUST SAY A PART OF ME WANTS TO STOP READING AND A PART WANTS TO GO ON ! FUNNY THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT SIDE EFFECTS AND YET WE ALL DONT GET THE SAME ONES , SOME ARE MILD WHILE OTHERS ARE ON OXYGEN ........  OH YES FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW ME I AM RAINEY AND WAS STRICKEN IN 1954 A WEEK BEFORE MY THIRD BIRTHDAY . I AM NOW IN A WHEELCHAIR FULL TIME ...... WHAT ARE YOUR EFFECTS AND HOW ARE YOU TREATING THEM ? DO YOU FEAR THE UNKNOWN ?  I MUST SAY I LIVE A SLOWER LIFE NOW AND JUST DO ONE DAY AT A TIME ....  RAINEY XO

Alright you go girl! Thats how I live my life is one day at a time.  I think thats how most of us do it. I maynot of had Polio, but it is hard for me to get around and I keep hearing how each of us with Fibro. have different stages of it.

I hope you learn something you didn't know from the book. It may even help you. Take Care Now, Sandy
