In response to "Watching a docu on polio <>wikipedia "In the United States, the 1952 polio epidemic was the worst outbreak in the nation's history..."" by Max

That's when I was suspected of having it - in Australia. I was one of the lucky ones with no after effects.

We were about 30 miles from the nearest hospital which wasn't equipped to handle severe cases. Doc pretty much told my mom to take me home and hope for the best.
