Can normal flora be harmful?
Normal flora exists on and in the body. But certain normal flora lives only in certain body areas. For example, we have E-Coli microorganisms in the large intestines, rectum, and on the skin around the anus. If that flora is "moved" to a different body area, say in the mouth (from not washing hands after wiping away a bowel movement) or in the vagina (from wiping back to front), then infection can occur. Some diseases make normal flora multiply. For example, yeast is found on the skin, mouth, and in the vagina. People with diabetes can have frequent yeast infections in the mouth, vagina, and in skin folds.

Was Lena Horne's mom white?
her parents were mixed black,native American, and white so shes mixed but identifies as black. She is a light skinned black American. Throughout black history all blacks have been partially mixed with European & Native American. In the old days they used to tell the lighter skinned blacks to marry each other because it was thought they would do better in society. As a result some blacks are just very light but not necessarily any more or less mixed than the average black American. Lena Horne's parents do not have a known fully white parent and always lived in upper class black communities.

Is it normal to have 3 plus mixed skin flora within a wound?
Normal skin flora is a combination of many types of micro-organisms, including bacteria, viruses and yeast. When a wound occurs, some "normal flora" are introduced into the wound, especially in a penetrating wound such as a stabbing or shooting. When a wound culture is performed, the pathologist looks for "normal flora" which could become pathogens if the organisms begin to multiply, especially since those organisms of the normal flora are now in a place they should not normally be (i.e. transferred from the skin to inside the body, in a blood-rich environment). The pathologist also looks for other pathogens, such as the once-normal flora of the assailant or perpetrator which could infect the new host (the person with the wound).
