Guest guest Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 , I know exactly where you are in this and I sympathize with you. Good luck with the moving. God Bless Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Moving in with a relative so we can save some money and get safe place. We have been paying so much and I know we should move because I am always getting sick from my neighbors cooking and and chemical fumes from shampoos, detergents. I have been nervous the room I am going to sleep in has an antique dresser that is 100 years old in the room. It is beautiful but I could smell it as soon as they opened the door. I finally got up the nerve to ask my mother-in-law if they could move it out of there. Guess they will switch dressers today. I have been very worried about that. Now to air the room out. I am afraid but trying to be positive. I will be at the mercy of others to accomodate me with my chemical problem. Luckily my mother in law is nice and understands somewhat.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Good luck, I know how difficult it is. Being dependent on the kindness of others. I was very fortunate, when I was moving around, to move in with a friend who was very sympathetic, and did everything she could to make me confortable- like taking out scented candles- she has a peanut allergy so understands these things. Without the help of my true friends and relatives- I would not have made it through such a rough period.

I can't even imagine how stressful this transition is for you. When will you be moving in? Do you have a good charcoal air purifier to keep in your new bedroom? Is your MIL agreeable to use only non-toxic household products? With your chemical sensitivities you will need her cooperation as much as possible for everything she uses in the home. Have you been able to identify any other items/products in your MIL's home that will cause you to react and could be removed or substituted? Does she have air fresheners, plug-ins, scented clothes washing detergents and fabric softeners or dryer sheets? Sending you a hug for strength and courage to protect yourself and to advise your MIL of potential problems for you. Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
