"Testing for PKU was not routine in 1946 and, sadly, Michelle inherited this rare disorder which caused her to have severe intellectual disabilities. As was customary at the time in cases like this, Michelle was placed in Dixon State Hospital at the age of three where she spent the rest of her days."
