"Roberta Bradley is scent sensitive to many things, so she wears a respirator mask when she ventures out of her home. She avoids crowds as much as possible, as perfumes and detergents make her ill."
The mission of MCS America (MCSA) is to propagate medical, legal, and social recognition for multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) as a disorder of organic biological origin induced by toxic environmental insults; to provide support and referral services to the individuals with all illnesses of environmental origin; and to ensure that environmental toxicants are identified, reduced, regulated, and enforced through lobbying for effective legislation. © MCS America
