[My younger brother got the cube, i got the annual cube ‘booster’.]

We all lined up in grade school for the sugar cube, then the boosters. I remember having a “sick” feeling injecting it. Maybe I was allergic to an ingredient in the vaccine.

I am thankful Mom kept us kids out of public places during the peak of the polio epidemic. We were the only family in the neighborhood that didn’t contract the disease.

I remember visiting the pediatric wing of a new hospital in 1958 and seeing one large room full of occupied iron lung machines.

Slide note,
When i started teaching HS after retirement i noticed several students on campus with Rickets. I kept thinking how is this possible, polio has been gone for fifty years? Used to see classmates with Rickets when I was young. As I continued to investigate I realized that these students were “sagging”. I was greatly relieved until I investigated sagging, now I simply think how sad.

Please continue to pray for POTUS and family as well as all supporters both in America and WW. Dear Lord lead us to end this DS/Satanic scourge on our country and the world. Send us a revival that lines between good and bad may be distinctly shown for there are NO GREY AREAS! Amen!
