The Hancock County family having health problems because of mold in

their FEMA trailer is now breathing easier.

One day after our news story, FEMA's maintenance department removed

and replaced the mold covered wall Terrence and Orgeron said

was making them sick.

A leak in a water line leading to the shower caused the mold. The

Orgerons say work crews fixed the leak in December, but never

returned to replace the wall that had mold on it, despite repeated

calls for help.

Al Showers reported on the family's plight Monday night. By Tuesday,

FEMA workers had fixed the problem.
