Daniella:

I was sitting in my son's ear nose and throat doctor's office MANY years ago, while my son was being examined.

There was a Newsweek magazaine in the waiting room. I picked it up and it said "Dustmites, what do they really look like when they are magnified".

Then they showed someone's eyelashes. (under some kind of Spectron Microscope).

WELL, YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN ME RUN TO THE BATHROOM,and wash my eyes.

My husband never laughed so hard in all his life. He thought "oh my god, what is she afraid of now"?

I showed him the photos. He started wiping his eyes.

Know what I think? We better stop looking at pictures of bacterium, molds, spores, bed bugs, whatever.

Our minds will then tell us "these things are crawling all over us".

I know that we have bacteria. We have to learn to live with it.

I try not to panic over the stupid things.

But I better not see a waterbug in my bathroom. You might hear me all the way in New Jersey!! lol
