MODERN SUCCESS STORY
CHARLESTON, Jan. 12—This
is a modern success story.
It isn’t a rarity and therefore
not unusual in the sense that it
doesn’t happen often. Wherever
there are good doctors, nurses,
sufficient equipment and kind-
hearted people it is happening
again and again in South Caro
lina. Yet it’s the p%rt of an over
all picture which is too often over
looked.
For here at Charleston’s Roper
Hospital two more young ‘polio
patients have been guided back to
health.
The story really starts back in
the summer of 1952 when two-
year-old Douglas Hires and three-
year-old Ed Smoak were stricken
with infantile paralysis.
They were immediately rushed
to the hospital here which serves
polio patients from 12 counties.
Then began a long series of treat
ments which lasted through the
summer, into the fall and which
are still going on in some de
gree.
Douglas and Ed aren’t complete
ly cured now. But the goal is
within sight
Through the long months of
pain and suffering the youngsters
have smiled bravely as they fought
against the after-effects of in
fantile paralysis. To them the
treatments have been something of
a long “swimming party.” Their
daily “swim” was a dip in the
large Hubbard Tank here at the
hospital where they exercised
under the watchful eye of trained
physical therapists.
Douglas is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. L. C. Hires, of Lodge and
Ed is the son of Mr. and Mrs. I'
C. L. Smoak of Walterboro. recovered from the effects of
