I am chemically sensitive (also called environmental illness). This means I react adversely to chemicals in common everyday items such as: detergents, shampoos, soaps, building materials, furniture, carpet, anything plastic, foods, clothing, etc.
Though I am married, I lead a very isolated life due to my illness and am hoping to make some friends with whom I can correspond. Would be really excited to find more chemically sensitive people. I can no longer wear make-up, use regular shampoos or hair products, polish my nails, or wear certain clothing. Even my leather shoes are worn as little as possible due to the effect they have upon my health. I rarely go out because buildings and people literally make me sick. I have had to give up many hobbies: reading, crocheting, painting, etc due to the chemical problems, but I am able right now to make dolls and I keep a website where I sell them as a hobby and for a little cash now and then.
Though my health problems keep me from doing alot now. I have had alot of interests and hobbies. I love animals and currently have 3 dogs, Opie, Conrad and Little Bit, and 1 elderly cranky cat, Nicki. I love crafts. Currently I sew alot, but I used to crochet and knit, and I painted animals on rocks for awhile. I no longer read due to chemicals in books, but I listen to books on tapes... love scary ones, Stephen King, Dean Koontz. I love art, nature and many, many other things. Unfortunately, I can tend to be a big windbag as you can see from my profile. So I guess if youre interested in having your ears talked off, you can write me.
