@chromogirl @YouInMyEye My mother-in-law in Hawaii had it quite young and her left side was seriously affected and weak. It hit their area and she was one of a handful that came through.

My dad survived polio as a child, after spending MONTHS in the hospital and missing a year of school.
He had a screwed up back from it for the rest of his life, and yet he knew he was one of the lucky ones.
Vaccinations were CELEBRATED in my house, and that is one family tradition that I will always embrace.
