More on Dryer Sheets

I would like to share this incredible response from M.W. to my email about dryer sheets:

?€?Hi Dr. P, loved this e-mail. I have an even better one to tell you. Years ago (when I was young and foolish) I used these sheets. One day my right nipple started itching, drove me crazy. I finally went into an MD, and he diagnosed me with a type of cancer (can't even remember what type). I had to go in for a biopsy, and it wasn't cancer. We then started looking around for a cause. I finally quit the dryer sheets and it went away within a week. I wonder how many women have been diagnosed with this type of cancer and have gone through numerous invasive techniques because of these sheets. I for one wouldn't have these pieces of poison in my house even to kill a mouse!! Anytime I speak with anyone about skin allergies the first question I ask is, "are you using fabric softeners?" Almost always the answer is yes! Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention.?€?

Thank you M.W. for sharing your story! ~ Susan
