Life is Short

The scourge of polio invades the Metcalf-Kahn home as new mother Anne is stricken with the disease, her family is quarantined and others who come in contact with her fear the worst. Meanwhile, Mike dreads the coming of another birthday; and 50-year-old Abe fears he's losing his memory, just as his father did.
