Re: MCS brought on by toxid mold

More | Report Post

AVE, my thought's are with you and your daughter, I also have
daughters ans gkids that were exposed to one extent or another,
that show signs of exposier. have you tried the honeycomb mask
from www.icanbreathe.com, it is lined with charcoal. I haven't
tried it yet, may be worth a try. I hate the idea of wearing a
mask around, but better than being ill from smells. also, there
is the U.S. toxic mold saftey and protection act, admitted to
congress by congressman John Conyers Jr. in 2003. Joel Segal is
working with Mr. Conyers on it and wants victoms story's sent to
him. he is a victom also. he says it well take many years to get
it going, but victoms story's well help. don't give up, neither
well I, take care. www.joelsegalmail.house.gov, hope this is
right, not possitive on the
dots.
