You Think You've Got It Bad.........

That is just plain sad! Thinking back to how much fun I had with my kids..playing in the rain or swimming pool. bless her heart! No, I don't have an air freshener thingy on my rear view mirror.. but I do keep a can of fabreeze under the seat!

That must be pure hell and if it is urticaria it is a systemic reaction and she'll never grow out of it! OMG that must be awful , truly awful! xxx

*ignores most of the discussion* I dont have a car to hang one of those things on.. but if i did i'd have a sun roof to let the stink out intstead of smellin up my car with some crappy scent that'd prob give me a headache. how's the suit ?

I used to have a pine tree hanging in my car. It was a pain - the pine needles kept shedding all over the dashboard, and after a while we were up to our ankles in them. I took it down and installed a shower nozzle instead. Now my car won't be stolen by people suffering from aquagenic urticaria. Bonus!

Hey sconi! I read this article the other day and I was shocked! I would freak if this was to happen to me! I am a water rat! I love the water! I couldn't live without taking a shower even one day! And washing my hair, hell no! I take 2 showers in the summer and sweat like a pig! I would die! I would be in hives all the time! It is really a sad disease this poor woman suffers from and they can't find a cure for it! Can you imagine having to live like this? She can barely touch her child in case he sweats or crys? I was so upset when I read this. I hope they find some sort of way to help her live a more normal life soon!

Well that defently has to suck can not have any contact with water. Shower 10 secs a week! Wow poor lady. Thats the first time i ever heared of beeing allgergic to water.

Oh my goodness..I don't think I could live without water. I would hate not being able to drink or bath what about other fluids? Alot of stuff is made with water. Alot of foods,drinks,and to not be able to go swimming in the summer..lord have mercy I would hate that. I have heard on television about a girl who couldn't go out side or let her body get temperature get under 62 degrees. And some who were allergic to the sun. It is hard to have to live with problems like that. I know I wouldn't want to..She would have to do her laundry with gloves on and bath her baby that way too..

Very strange. I do have one hanging in my vehicle but it's peach scented.

Im not really a water fan. I dont like swimming. Im not really even a fan of showering, dont worry I still do it! But I couldnt imagine being so limited. Of course, I wouldnt be able to touch my husband at during the summer - he sweats too much. This definitely makes me feel better about my life!
