John lives under the Pontchartrain Expressway with a few people he met on the streets.
AFC Doctors Express, the largest independent urgent-care provider in the Commonwealth, announced that more than one-third of American households will put up a Christmas tree during the holiday season – and those that sneeze and have a runny nose or itchy eyes once the tree is up might have a case of “Christmas tree syndrome” – an allergic reaction to the tree (real or fake).
Many people showed their holiday spirit by helping a homeless man in New Orleans, after his Christmas tree was thrown out by city sanitation workers.
Then it was stolen twice, according to WGNO. “I don’t know if they were instructed to double back and get the tree – because my tent and everything else – but they pinpointed just the tree”.
David Smith of Smith’s Christmas Trees in Mayfield said sales have been good, with people out in force over the last couple of weekends.
Dr Liversedge said: “Anyone with allergies should spray their tree down with water before bringing it into their house, or an even safer bet is to opt for an artificial tree – however, it is also important to wash or shake these outside before putting them in the house, as they may have gathered dust and particles in storage”.
Strangers started dropping off lights and gifts.
“Also, if someone already has a respiratory allergy – such as to a pet or dust mites – then the lining of their nose is already over-secreting and sensitive and the mould on the Christmas tree may make the symptoms of their normal allergy worse”.
“Pretty sad that the homeless can’t have a Christmas tree”, one woman wrote on Facebook.
“Which is nice because it’s a 40-minute drive so you don’t usually expect to see the Charlottetown people”, said Drummond.
If Philly had a Christmas list, what would top his list?
Another study found that after two weeks of being on display, the number of airborne mould spores coming from a Christmas tree increases from 800 per 35 cubic feet to 5,000.
