Martha Mason has lived inside an iron lung for most of her life. When she was just 11 years old, she acquired a terrible disease and the only option the doctors gave her was to live inside a giant machine since her diaphragm was completely destroyed. However, despite this, they didn’t expect her to live over a year. No one imagined that she would break all expectations and spend 61 years in there. | Vitamin
