Many people suffer from having had polio in the 1940s and 1950s. With no problems for years, post-polio syndrome strikes as they reach older age. Little by little a weakening of their muscles shows up once again. I am one of those people. I'll tell you my story, as well as give you info that may improve your life. I've found it surprising the number of people the world over who are revealing they have the lessening of muscle strength after poliomyelitis. They were active and appeared strong and healthy, just like I did. There are many things to come to grips with, and we'll discuss them.

Cultural and Language Diversity and the Deaf Experience
This edited volume provides a comprehensive analysis of deaf people as a culturally and linguistically distinct minority group within American society. Many educators, linguists, and researchers now favor this position, as opposed to that which states that a deaf person simply has an audiological disability. Contributors to this book include members of the deaf community, as well as prominent deaf and hearing educators and researchers. The text contains three sections, covering research on bilingualism and biculturalism, the impact of cultural and language diversity on the deaf experience, and first-hand accounts from deaf community members that highlight the emotional impact of living in the deaf and hearing worlds.
