Need your opinions please-

[Guest guest]

I have been here in Dallas Tx for almost two years in treatment for

mycotoxicosis. I was feeling quite well for awhile but it would come

and go. However, after moving to another hotel room here I started to

decline and ended up with a kidney infection last week and urinating

blood. After blood work was done and it showed kideny problems, liver

problems, high WBC and neutrohpils,(I could go on but..) I inspected my

ac unit in my hotel room and it was FULL of mold. I have tested it and

taken pictures, and as of last night have moved across the street to

another hotel. My question is, do I have a legal case here in your

opinion or should I not waste what energy I have left to fight with

them? I had spent $25,000.00 for that moldy room and all the mananger

could say was " sorry " and they charged my account again before I left.

I have spend over $100,000.00 here on medical care and would like to

make them responsible for some of that as I am now back in treatment

and my health is declining. I repect everyones opinion here. I did not

know if I would have a chance with such a large and well known company.

Thank you for all your help, sorry this is so long-

Hi, Diane....glad to learn you took pictures. Keep records with dates and

details along with the photos and find a good attorney. LOL on that! My toxic,

waterbound apartment killed my husband and left me with a severe case of toxic

encephalopathy. I can no longer drive or live independently. I am so

debilitated and was unable to procure an attorney although I tried and tried.

One attorney even sent a mold inspector over and he found that our home was

highly contaminated. Then, for some reason, the attorney backed out. My

physician claimed that mold related illness was " just a bunch of hype " . Now,

too much time has passed. Between being so ill and having to take care of the

details of my husband's final arrangements, I just gave up. If you have a GOOD

attorney, you should have a strong case. Best of luck to you!

DIANE: You certainly have all the ingredients for a proper lawsuit. As an

educational gesture only, and not as an attorney (which I am not-- so you might

consult one) the normal procedure for determination of case filing is that " you

are aware that you were harmed by another. " In establishing a timeline for

this, it is normally " when you knew that you had been harmed, or should have

known. " The " when you should have known " seems to be the preferred code that

attorneys attempt to play upon. However, one suggestion before you start, and

that is all it is, not a recommendation or any legal advice (because I cannot

give you any), some folks have had marginal success in hiring an attorney for

the purpose of simply sending a " Letter of Demand " before filing any legal

matter. Hope this helps.

Did they now about your condition?

Did you ask them to look at the AC?

Did you ask them to move to another room?
