Polio Christmas Dinner

Last night Elaine and I attended the Christmas dinner for the post polio organization we joined this year. There were over 75 people there which is relatively large considering the regular meetings would have less than 20 people. Quite a few members invited friends and family.

The dinner was in the church basement where the group treasurer and her husband attend, and the dinner was catered by the ladies from that church. One thing that impressed me was how the president prayed to blessed the meal and our fellowship.

It is a great group to visit with. In spite of many of them having dealt with physical difficulties, they are cheerful and positive-minded. After the dinner there was a music group that entertained. They sang and played guitars including Christmas songs, and country gospel. The whole event was quite enjoyable.

At first, when I read that I thought you were having a "Polio Christmas" and I was confused.
