Story Behind My Topic

Story Behind My Topic

Over 60 years ago, my uncle was diagnosed with poliomyelitis, a disease that causes paralysis. The doctors had given him the vaccine to prevent the disease, but it did not work. Thankfully, my uncle is still alive today, but he has to have a nurse by his side to take care of him. My family thinks that what was given to him was a cure that would not work in the first place. I know polio causes paralysis but I would like to learn more about what my uncle is having to live with.
