Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 I find interesting that I've read that people that stay at home a lot have been found to have a weaker immune system and also that 'housewives' are second to farmers for fungal lung infections. Dana Reeves had no predisposition to lung cancer, non smoker, etc, and young, but her lifestyle of taking care of Crystopher Reeves made her (and him) more or less 'homebodies'. Could home indoor environment have led to Dana's lung cancer? I am betting yes. I'm sure they had a big fancy beautiful home, but that doesn't mean, that there wasn't mold or other indoor air quality problem. If you stay home a lot, your immune system gets run down, exposed to the same agent, toxin or fungus, or what have you. Conjecture, sure, but I also was care giver for twelve years to a relative, but since then have been sick myself. I was home a lot due to care giving needs and her house was mold pit, I discovered later. Well, actually I saw the mold but didn't know how dangerous it was and was so busy taking care of her, didn't feel I had time to look into cleaning it up. Lots of people don't know how dangerous mold is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
