Sorry but I just have to vent!

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

I'm more a reader than a talker, but I cannot take any more and just need to

vent.

Our family's story is a long one, you can read the full story on my web page

here; http://www.carmellasplace.thegourdreserve.com/moldstory.shtml

Because of my continued exposure to mold I now am highly sensitive to

everything, especially mold. No matter where I go anymore it seems there is mold

or something in the air that causes me to either cough, my skin to itch and

burn, my sinuses to run, a headache, or all the above all at once. I hurt all

over, especially in my back, stomach, ribs, and chest areas. My legs, ankles,

and knees swell and hurt. I'm always having headaches. I'm 42 years old but I

feel more like 80! My husband has constant headaches, and has aquired breathing

problems and pain in his lungs.

Like many on this list, we have no insurance and therefore cannot go to a

doctor, not that a doctor would do any good. We cannot afford to move, so we

have to continue to endure the mold, which just keeps on growing.

My husband and I both have disabilities that keep us from working full time

jobs. Our work is all through odd jobs and whatever we can make each month on

goole ads and affiliate commissions. Although we have a lot of faith in the

google and affiliates, that all takes time to grow into a decent income, and

until it does we are stuck in this sick house to continue getting sicker. Some

days I sit and I just cry, when the pain is just so unbareable I cannot stand it

anymore, and wonder how I am going to keep dealing with the pain day after day.

We have decided that when we do have the money saved that we need to move,

that we need to move from the state. We live in Indiana and we have been told it

is one of the worst states for molds. We are thinking Nevada sounds nice a dry.

Anyone know about that? Funny, we think back to when we first looked at a house

in this town, and the smell of mold in the air when we got off the interstate

and headed into town. We still smell it everytime we leave town and come back.

The smell of fungus is in the air strong! And all we thought when we first came

to town was, " hmm, smells moldy, must be a lot of mushrooms growing around here "

LOL oh if I only we had known then what we know now. Then again, God has a

reason for everything that happens, I told my husband today that perhaps God

wanted to give the world a strong voice to listen too. He knows that when I get

mad I get loud and people listen just to get me out of their face and off their

backs. Well I am officially VERY MAD!!! I wrote to Montel today,

figured that was as good a place as any to start.

Today I went to pay my light bill, and as soon as I walked in the door I got

hit with the mold and an instant headache! I called the health department last

month after going in to pay my light bill, because I got hit with it then too.

We wrote a note and ran it in and dropped it on the desk and ran back out. We

had our cell phone number on it. When they called they said the health

department had come in and told them there was NO MOLD!!! They asked if we

would please call the health department and tell them, because they all have to

keep working in this place. We told them we would call first thing tomorrow.

Yesterday our daughters landlord went in her house and tore out drywall that

I know is moldy, and told her there was no mold.

I'll save our Histoplasmosis story for another time. That was our first

experience with mold and it was in the High school! I'll have that story on my

web page soon.

Well I'll get down off my soap box now. Thank you all for listening and

allowing me to vent. It really does help to just get it all out.

Have a Blessed day,

Carmella

I love History as much as I love Jesus, because it is HIStory!

May God's Blessings Shine Down On You Today, Tomorrow, Forever!
