The chilling and anger provoking ugly Middle East story of polio break out in war demolished Syria with NO medical facilities or help. Can you imagine this nearly-eradicated-from-the face-of-the-earth viral disease making a comeback? This is what war provokes as no sewage or sanitation facilities exist spreading the disease as societies break down. This is why war must not, cannot and should not ever be used as a tool for change.
If anyone can imagine this I surely can. Do I thank fate for Children's Hospital in Boston and for having been born in this country where I attained superb care as a child unlucky enough to have been born before the 1955 Salk vaccine? A resounding YES!
The story is here or below.

We here in Boston are DELIRIOUS with Sox happiness. It is a story book ending to a year filled with grief for the city.
I LOVE my city, love my state and love my country (when Democrats are in power.) We MUST defeat the Republican Party that brings revelry for ONLY the top 2%. It brings death and destruction to everyone else.

The Red Sox did it and won. So must the rest of us.
VOTE DEMOCRAT WHEREVER YOU MAY BE. REPUBLICANS MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO ATTAIN POWER AGAIN SIMPLY LOOK AT WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. IT IS SURELY MORE EGREGIOUS THAN PROBLEMS WITH A WEB SITE. REPUBLICANS ALMOST TOOK DOWN A NATION, HAVE KILLED THOUSANDS, HURT MILLIONS AND WILL HURT MILLIONS MORE IF THEY GET A CHANCE. NOTHING SHORT OF A DEMOCRATIC TAKEOVER OF THE HOUSE AND STATE GOVERNMENTS ALL OVER THE NATION IS MANDATORY!
PASS THIS ON TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW!
