                    We are creating a slide show of photos - past and present that will continually remind Rotary International that we truly                                                      appreciate their dedication and commitment to their ongoing effort to rid the world of Polio.  
     We know that because of Post-Polio Syndrome, it will take a full generation to rid the world of the effects of this terrible disease.  
​    Vaccinating every child is the beginning of that end.   Please 
send your photo(s) to us (jpeg) by email: papolionetwork@gmail.com
                                                               Unable to email your photos?  Contact us, we're happy to help.

                              Without question, the one thing we ALL share is the prayer that with world wide vaccination;
​                                                  death and disability from the Polio Virus will soon be gone. . . Forever.

        The video from our August 2017 Conference
         Post-Polio Care:  Past, Present and Future
         
Dr. William DeMayo, MD. and Dr. Daniel Wilson, PhD. shared a wealth of wisdom about Post-Polio Care and how care history from the past has affected our PPS care today. Their knowledge about and credibility on the topic of Polio and Post-Polio Syndrome make this information filled video something you can feel comfortable sharing with your family and caregivers as well. The video is located in the “Post-Polio Syndrome” section of our Website.  DVD’s can be ordered for $10 (incl. shipping) either on our website by using a Credit Card or Pay Pal account (or) by sending a check using this form.
                              We are grateful to a truly humble NJ Polio Survivor whose talent in video editing is a gift.
