[Christina] Some sufferers describe their scent as fishy, a reason TMAU has earned the nickname "Fish Odor Syndrome." Others say they smell like garbage, rotten eggs or even burnt rubber.
[Maria] "What happens is there are other chemicals in the body." "Just like any fragrance, if you put some perfume on your skin, it might smell a little different on different people because of each of the various chemicals in your body, so that's why we need to find out about the other chemicals that come through...
I started this company with the idea of trying to unite researchers, experts and sufferers so that we could try to work together. I realized there is some information, I just didn't know where to look, and there was a tremendous need to bring all this information together. So I did."
[Christina] For people like Mardis, it is another outlet for her to spread her message of hope.
[Lisa] "I'm here to let you know that you are a beautiful person, and unique, and never give up," Mardis said, "Because there is hope out there. We can support one another. We can be there for one another."
