Re: Mould and Damp

[Guest guest]

Dear Bernice,

If your landlord cannot remedy the situation, definitely move. I am

guessing that all of us here are hyper-sensitive to mould in general.

I grew up in the desert and moved to Austin 15 years ago...the mould

in Austin has just about done me in at times and I genuinely wonder if

the climate could be a contributor to the candida since it was never a

problem in West Texas. I'd move back to the desert in a heartbeat if

I could.

Not only is your health being affected, think about the health of your

baby. Your baby can't even tell you if (s)he is having headaches,

etc. from the mould...but think how sensitive babies are to their

surroundings. They're like little sponges.

Take a close look at your lease and see to what extent it protects

your rights vs. protecting your landlord from having to take action.

You may be able to get out scott-free since the place sounds like a

health hazard.

Just my 2 cents.

+++Hi Bernice. Many candida sufferers are very sensitive to molds in

their environment. You can clean it up, or get a professional to

clean it for you:

It would be much better to move!
