reassuring please

Hi there.  I am back with a new concern although I have been told that nothing will happen but I just wanted to get more help.  My father washed out a kettle with bleach and hot water with soap.  I use the kettle to boil water for drinking,  although my caretaker has said nothing will happen if I wash it out a few times it will be use able again.  She washed it 7-8 times but I still can't get over it. Please if someone can help me I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Wont happen unless your drinking the bleach. Think about it.. kitchen counter tops are washed with bleach or products containing bleach. The food is prepared. The bleach is so concentrated it is harmless. But if you drink directly from a bottle of bleach then that would be a cause for concern so dont do that and you will be fine

Not too sure what you are scared of here? Worried that you may be poisoned? If that is so then no you wont be poisoned you can safely drink the water from that kettle now.  Nothing to worry about :)
