In the 1990s.
University professor.
Father that was a high functioning, very brilliant, bright, empathetic guy that started suffering when I was in the 90s from multiple chemical sensitivity. And he was just. He was a. He was a university professor, among other things. And he was starting to educate his family us on going, I can't be around you if you have these, you know, if you washed your hair with this kind of shampoo, if you washed your clothes in this, if you put this deodorant on. I'm like, you know, these cleaning products in the carpet, like, what do you mean, dad? Right. So this whole thing of, like, my dad suffering as a result of this stuff educated me to be aware that there is largely hundreds of thousands of chemicals that are created every year that have not been product tested.
