Lu,

I too was exposed to the glue smells just prior to my illness. Nah couldn't

Oh my gosh Lu,

I was doing stone jewellery work and still do!!!! I used a super glue called

Zap. I didn't have the proper ventilation either, I guess it really zapped

me!!

I closed my store because I wasn't very well and my daughter's baby sitter

let her do things like run all over the neighbourhood. I'd get there and she

wouldn't even know where my daughter was. 's dad was away fishing

too, so I had the whole burden of everything at home too. Gee, no wonder

we're sick.

If we can't do crafts, now that we're all bored, what can we do? I guess we

just have to rest.

Hi Elaine,

I used that glue also and another one, darn I can't think of the name of it.

I was doing a lot of the stone jewelry work also. After that I really became

sick, plus I was under tons of stress with the shop.

Well we know at least 2 things that aren't good for us....glue & stress.

Anybody else????

Take care,

Love ya!

Lu

Glenda,

Maybe Lu has something here!

I used glued for my crafts too!!

Rp must have some sort of chemical link. Over exposure to something must

have made us sick don't you think. The one I used was a model airplane

super glue for those radio control jobbies. Who else out there used glue for

crafts?

Elaine

Re: Elaine/ Lu's story///Elaine

Lu,

I too was exposed to the glue smells just prior to my illness. Nah couldn't

be caused from that. No such luck on something that easy.

in the theater and was exposed to dry cleaning fluids, paints,solvents and

all kinds of glues.
