[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve noticed this in recent years with my mother, 72. It lingers in my house once she leaves, and like someone else said, it permeates food and packaging; I can taste it in cookies she brings over, and it sticks to the packaging of things she brings over for my kids. I can smell it in her house but she does her best to mask it with even more offensive room sprays. I know for a fact she doesn’t shower as often as she should, and doesn’t wash her hair enough. She has told me she only showers in the morning (I wonder if showering before bed would help) and only washes her hair a couple times a week. I don’t smell it on my dad. I also smell it on MIL, but hers is slightly more offensive than my mom’s, only hers doesn’t linger or permeate the same way; MILs is like a cloud that lingers around her person, like Pig-Pen from Peanuts. [/quote] Wait - you don't think she showers as often as she should, but she showers every morning?? That doesn't make sense. How many times a day would you want your senior mom to shower?[/quote]
