Do You wash New Clothes?
I don't ever wash my new clothing. Ford, my husband would never wear anything new without it being washed first. I would complain to him that it was silly to wash new clothes. They look nicer than they ever will again. But he still was staunch in his ways and wouldn't wear them until they were washed.
Since I read the following article I may change my ways. It is creepy to think this might happen to you.
This article was on Google and was posted by AQ COBEN:
Wash bras and other clothing before use!
Most people do but this is just a warning for those who don't.....
Read the account first, then brace yourselves before looking at the pics........
WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT PARASITES ARE IN OUR CLOTHING WHen we buy them.

True Story
After anthropologist, Susan McKinley came back from an expedition in South America, she noticed a very strange rash on her left breast. Nobody knew what it was and she quickly dismissed it believing the rash would leave in time.
She decided to see a doctor after she started developing intense pains. The doctor, not knowing the exact severity of the disease gave her antibiotics and special creams. As time elapsed the pain did not subside and her left breast became more inflamed and started to bleed. She decided to bandage her sores. However, as Susan's pain grew more intense she decided to seek help from a more certified doctor.
Dr. Lynch could not diagnose the infection and told Susan to seek the aid of one of his colleagues who specialized in dermatology.
Unfortunately, the doctor was on vacation. She waited for two weeks and finally was finally able to reach the dermatologist. Sadly, a life changing event was about to unfold during her appointment.
To Miss McKinley's surprise, after she removed the bandages they found larvae growing and squirming within the pores and sores of her breast. Sometimes these wicked creatures would all together simultaneously move around into different crevices. What she didn't know was that the holes were in fact, deeper than she had originally thought, for these larvae were feeding off the fat, tissue and even the milk canals of her breast.
Please share this with as many women and men as you know. Our undergarments are made in different countries all over the world. They sit in boxes and go through many hands and exchanges before we purchase them for ourselves.

So, it is up to you--will you wash clothing now before you wear it? I will, I am sure.
