New Realizations/Re: Relocation Accomplished

September 30, 2010

Joe,

My husband is not remediating. He is cleaning the house out and is not effected

despite the fact he also has one of the HLA types. I dont know how this happens

esp since I know darn well he has been exposed to alot of mold and other

biotoxins including lyme and he handled that treatment like a breeze.. this

should not have happned with his " Dreaded gene " . There has to be another factor.

My daughter has one of the HLA types as well and her markers are all ok so far.

I know what to look for and I have to balance fear, concern with LIFE!

There is a diff living in the stuff and being exposed.

We had the house remediated 6 months ago by someone who used proper protocol. I

am seeing that my labwork improved at that 6 month mark or before.

We moved out and I have children. I cannot keep them in a bubble. I talked with

them about this and they understand my situation. I am *happy* we found good

*nice* neighbors and friends for my kids. I will not let mold get in the way of

that. I am looking for ways to handle the situation without making neurotic

hermits out of my kids.

We live in a moldy world. I cannot go off and live in a desert in a tent and

drag my children there. I also cannot deny them friends because of mold unless I

see it effect them and then we need to come up with a solution. Honestly, if I

cant run a marathon and have functioning at about 75% I will be happy if I can

give my kids and myself a better life at 75% avoiding best I can over 100% and

being refined to a life bascially not worth living. If I didnt have kids, hey..

I could control alot more, but i do and thats part of my reality.

I am not planning to be at neighbors house everyday. I also will try to see how

I can and if I can manage my symptoms before I give up on the friendship.

Shoe found markers go up with reexposure and used csm to control. I am not

planning to vacation or live in my neighbors house. If a problem again, I will

tell her (already told her about the mold and since she knows someone who got

very ill from mold, she understands) and since they are outdoor people anyway, I

bet she wont mind chatting outside.

I have to experience and experiment for myself and for my kids sake. We are

fortunate that if we need to move again, we can. But if we do, whose to say the

next new neighbors will not have an issue?

Robin
