What Would Terry Do? Living and Laughing in the Face of Multiple Chemical Sensitivities - E-book - ePub

Shortly after the turn of the century, my wife Terry and I moved to the mountains of Colorado. Shortly after that, I wrote this humorous book about our lives and how my hero wife lived in spite of the debilitating illness of MCS - Multiple Chemical Sensitivities. This book was mainly written to help us laugh in spite of our difficulties. In the meantime, you'll get a closer look at how toxic chemicals affect the canaries (first to react) like Terry.
And you'll gain some insights on how to avoid them. Not only is Terry allergic to all man-made chemicals, she's also allergic to several foods. Luckily she's not allergic to plants or animals. Yeah, so you've got allergies - take a shot for them! Well except unless you're allergic to the shot. And, they don't make one for these allergies. So Terry lives with the severe face pain, the mind fog, the lack of energy.
And she swears every time she's out for a walk and somebody is doing their laundry with some fragranced detergent - her biggest bane. Sometimes she falters and doesn't bear it well, but to me, she's always a hero. This is her story.
