About Me

Welcome to my reflections and essays on toxic injury/multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), written from my own firsthand perspective (see my posts from 2011 through 2014). Here you can also access a growing library of information from experts in the field of environmental science/medicine. This site aims to provide a clear window into common toxic dangers and the devastating cost of toxic injury. I'm also adding a new section, now (see my posts from 2015 onward), which will discuss natural measures of health support for all who are unwell with MCS and other physical disorders.
