Asbestos in my moms old home- she invite us over for thanksgiving- go or no?

she and husband tore down old wall. she said there was about a cup of insilation that may have asbestos in it that came out onto the floor. she said she mopped with wet rag and vacuumed ( they say not to vacuum on the web sights I looked at.) she said that those web sights just play into your fears and you dont need professionals to come do the cleanup, everythings fine, not enough to harm you. should I trust her or the "propaganda" of the EPA web sights. ? They say it only takes one exposure and you could get the lung cancer later in life. I have a 5 mo old and she wanted us to come over for thanksgiving. I told her no and now I am thinking that I wont come over at all until she has had the air tested and deemed safe. what do you think?

One trip will not hurt you. I am sure she had cleaned it up. it happens over a long period of time. People working with it mostly for years and years.
