[MOL] A stupid question-should common sense reign supreme?



My 11 yr old son's room is a constant "room in progress", with walls that 
just beg me to do something to them.  I recently painted the walls blue and 
painted fish, coral, sea grass, etc. to make the room look like an 
aquarium-even ran a paint brush lightly across the ceiling to give an 
underwater look.  He's grown out of that and I want to use the "plastic bag 
technique" to add white to the blue for an overall cloud effect.  The fish 
wipe off because I used poster paint to get them on the wall.  A fact not 
lost on the kid who decided to see if the fish could swim and squirted one 
with a water gun - running the poor fish down the wall!  Yes, I love my son - 
98% of the time. :)   Anyway, my mom has lung cancer (and emphysema) and she 
wants to help me with the addition of the white.  Is it safe to have her in 
the room with paint flying around (I'm a wild woman with a paint brush)??  
She has portable oxygen and uses a nebulizer, but I don't want to compromise 
her lungs anymore than they already are.  Help anyone?
