hospital and she get's the bed that is beside a Negro girl! Her name is Imogene Wolfong they then become very best friend's in the contagess ward but when Ann Fay and Imogene Wolfong where no longer contagess they where seperated ! So on one night at 11:00 Ann Fay and Imogene knew how to ride in a wheelchair so they met each other in the middle of the hospital . And about a week later Presedent Franklen Deleono
Roosevelt died from polio then about another 2
week's later Ann Fay when't out of the hospital on
cruches.
On June 1944 Bobby got the cold ! Momma made
Bobby stay in bed for two days . On Thursday it was
like Bobby never had the cold. So Ann Fay made him

collapsed ! Ann Fay called the doctor and a black
hearse came and took Bobby to the hospital with
Mamma and left Ann Fay in charge .
