Seeking help, Ragans visited the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation in Georgia, named for perhaps the most famous polio victim, President Franklin D. Roosevelt. There doctors finally diagnosed her problem: post-poliomyelitis muscular atrophy, an affliction that strikes many former polio patients with symptoms that in some ways mimic the original disease. Across the U.S., PPMA is affecting more and more...
