Suffocated

Dear Queenie,

My wife’s sisters are tremendously overweight, and I mean tremendous! That’s not a problem, but what is is that they stink. They have such terrible body odour that when they visit us it sticks to the furniture and hangs in the air even after they have left, not to mention how their own house smells.

Queenie, should we tell them about their problem? And what’s the best way to get rid of the stench?—Suffocated

Dear Suffocated,

Your sisters-in-law may have a medical problem that causes their body odour. Your wife should suggest to them that they talk to their doctor about it.

Meanwhile, cover your furniture with plastic, at least when they are going to visit you. And the next time there is a gift-giving occasion, fancy bath kits might be in order.
