RE: I found a letter inside an old book, and it said..

in Freewriters11 days ago

You know, I too am disgusted by people who run their finger through their saliva and then pick up the page of a book.

I can't read used books, old books, look at photo albums or things like that now. My nose allergy became toxic. I sneeze to exhaustion when the fine dust raised by old pages penetrates.

If I want to read something I have to look it up online to read it from the screen.

is it because of the disgust or the saliva?

I wonder if people still do that. The average device will also be far from clean. Imagine what touches it. This was already known of keyboards (and doorknobs)..
I am sorry to hear about your allergies ☹️

That's right, I constantly have to clean my keyboards, all of them. Dust and other splashes accumulate.

I have suffered my nasal allergies for a lifetime. When I was young I used to take medication all the time, to combat it, but not now. By the way yesterday it rained a lot around here and the weather you know it stays wet, so my nose was dripping at dawn. It's something you get over during the day but it's quite tedious to be with a handkerchief in your hand.

My son also suffers from allergies. Fortunately, it is less at the moment but there are days, and especially nights, when he cannot sleep because of it. The nose keeps running and all that wiping does not improve the skin either. Often he then goes to bed sick to death with big wads in his nose to catch everything that drips out. No idea why sometimes it is so extreme and other times there is nothing wrong.
It's hard to live with. I wish you strength.

P.s. I don't think I have ever used a handkerchief in my life, though as a child I had continuous nosebleeds.

What a problem your son has with allergies, I'm so sorry. I would rather have allergies than my son having them. These days he was bitten by a mosquito that infected the skin on his hand. When he showed me his hand it was swollen and red. The mosquito bite infected him and he already had a pathology called “cellulitis” and I immediately gave him antibiotics and analgesics. I don't like anti-inflammatories at all. After 5 days his hand was already deflated, the lesions were red, but only in one place, not the whole hand.
My nasal allergies were worse as a teenager and young adult. There are bad days and good days.
