Hello Barbara,

Thank you for responding to my post. I/we appreciate

your help greatly.

Yes. We understand this. In the case of my brother, he

nearly died. Though he is young, he is now

immunocomprimised because of his health condition. We

are attempting to find someplace to go as of current.

It is difficult considering our financial situation,

however, and the high housing costs in Hawaii. But we

will do what is in the best of our ability.

several e-mails to various people I know on Oahu

asking for their input and

will let you know when I hear back.

Thank you.

>>> You might want to call the Department

of Health and ask if there is an investigator assigned

to indoor air quality

and health issues.

My mother has already done this and she was told that

our situation does not fall under the investigator's

jurisdiction because we are renters in a condo. He did

send us several papers and pamplets on toxic molds,

etc in homes, and how to clean them up, however, in

our case many of these cannot be cleaned up by

ourselves since we are renters (celing would have to

be redone, whole kitchen cabnet on floor-side is

rotted). Also, none of these have helped us to figure

out what is going on in our specific case, and also it

did not have any information on what we can do/what

action we can take/what options we have.

>I noted the EPA lists Barbara , phone:

808/586-4249, e-mail:

bbrooks@e... as working with PCB toxins. She might

know

who you can contact.

Thank you.

Anne
