Winifred Gardella's Experience

  In the early 1950s, Winifred Gardella was a poster child for the March of Dimes. Her picture was published in the newspapers to raise huge sums of money for the March of Dimes in San Francisco. Nationally, her image raised millions of dollars to help fight the dreaded crippler, polio. Her sad, innocent face and her body supported on crutches and leg braces, made many Americans reach into their pockets to donate.

  But the March of Dimes couldn't help Winnifred. After two and a half years under the doctor's expert care, her parents were told: "There is no hope."

  Despite this dire prediction, her grandparents were determined to find a cure. They were not about to accept the opinion of so-called "medical experts". They decided to choose their own health care and they took Winnifred to Dr. Lewis Robertson, a chiropractor. In less than six months of having her nerve interference corrected, Winnifred Gardella threw away her crutches and braces and went for a walk with her chiropractor. She has been walking ever since.
