I’m sure by now most mamas have read the tale of the raging idiot in Denver, Katreice Trujillo, who gave her 3 month old baby meth. If you haven’t, the story is basically that Katriece Trujillo (who has recently popped up on craigslist and backpage with ads for “incalls” – wow, a meth addicted hooker, that’s a new one) was broke and bought $40 of meth. (She was broke so she bought meth? Great idea!) She put the meth bag down next to the formula and accidently managed to mix it in the baby’s bottle. Huh? The baby then went into seizures and she took him to Children’s Hospital. Of course, then she told the cops she was lying, so who the hell knows what the story is. Now that we’re all caught up…

WHAT THE HELL?!? This woman had an older son that was, thank the Lord, taken away after they arrested her at Children’s Hospital for trying to kill her kid. I hear stories about mothers like this and I just cannot believe that while so many amazing women are unable to have children, this one is allowed to breed on a regular basis. It hardly seems fair.

So this was written about a year ago, but it’s news to me. Did you know they found a correlation between tea tree and lavender oils (in shampoos in the study) causing breast growth and early puberty in boys? It had the same response on breast cells as estrogen. It also discusses the effects certain plasticizers, placenta & estrogen shampoos, flame retardants and endocrine disrupters in cosmetics and prescription drugs. It’s a really interesting read.

Now I’m going to go throw away that damn boob growing lavender baby lotion.
