    Default Re: Autism and chlorine

    I would like to thank everyone who has responded to this thread and welcome more responses. I went to close her pool today and it was totally cloudy. I couldn't even see 2 foot down. Her water is always a little cloudy, but never like this. They are going to put a new liner in next spring so they are not so worried about the condition of the water so I put the cover on it and cleaned out all of the gunky (I have never seen it this bad, and it is changed every year) sand.

    I am going to talk to her about a SWG. I think if they had one of those she may be willing to convert to chlorine. I know they spend a ton of money on baquacil and even though they are "well off," that money could be going to something more useful.

    I was a little concerned about opening a can of worms with this thread, but really wanted to know what others thought about it.

    Thanks,
    JD

    You're welcome, Drumr, and I hope you can solve their problem for them.

    As you can see by the microcosm opinion expressed in this thread, the odds are against them and their helpless (but not hopeless) child.

    Sad, this world.
