“I was attacked by small pox at age 8 and survived.”
You were attacked by SMALL POX?
103 deg F fevers for 5 days, white blisters size of dimes covered my entire body except palms, feet bottoms. I do not remember having blisters on penis, but entire face, neck, chest, back, arms and legs had blisters. Now 73 years later, I still have marks on face left by the smallpox.
In my mother-tongue smallpox is called “dayvee” which means goddess, and I still remember my mother taking me to the Hindu temple in Mumbai to thank the goddess Kali for sparing the son.
Mortality rate with smallpox is 30+%.
