This comment was really helpful to me. Thank you. Googling “toxic fungus” was sufficiently scary to get me out of “what is it about laundry that i’m just not understanding that caused this to happen” mode (answer: there is nothing about laundry that i don’t “understand”. i also have long been aware of what fungus is and what conditions foster its growth, but was unable to prevent those conditions from occuring because of health problems, which the fungus exacerbated), and made me realise the flaw in my: “wait till i’m feeling better and then deal with it” strategy.
