Back a long time ago in the dark and Gothic days of the Bush era I had a college project to make a video and this was the result. As it is Halloween I find it appropriate to share with you, and for you to share with the littles (and not so littles) in your life. Happy Halloween!

This week on the 80s Mom Podcast we are going to discuss something that is frightening to all moms: lead poisoning. Even above all other dangers this is one that often makes us feel not only like bad parents, but also makes our homes feel like death traps. So what can we do as parents?

**Disclaimer: I am NOT a Doctor. I am just another mom who is sharing what we have gone through and learned during our daughter's diagnosis with lead poisoning. Do your own research, and always get your doctor's opinion before doing anything.***

Join me today as I discuss:

Our story

Lead testing

Eliminating possible sources

How diet may help

What not to be worried about
