Mold

[Scrawly]

Hey,

Prayers are much appreciated for a move that will soon take place. I have reserved the place - a spacious room in a new Townhouse - for a viewing tomorrow and judging by the pictures and area, the price is right.

Why the title "Mold"? Well, I am currently living with my dad in his house which is essentially infested with mold. I spent many years suffering - sleepless nights, headaches, paranoia, and many other symptoms of mold exposure. I finally realized that this house is going to destroy me if I don't leave so I pushed myself and got a full-time job for the purpose of renting. That is accomplished and now I just need to get the heck outta here.

Thanks!

Will be praying. In the mean time, you need a full medical evaluation as the external effects of black mold are only often a glimpse of what it can do internally. Also be sure to purchase new clothing, food and furniture even if its 2nd hand and take nothing with you as black mold needs to be left where it is. Its hard to leave everything but congratulations on your new start.

I'm also praying that your father actually does something about the mold.

Thanks everyone.

I drove to the place today for a viewing in an exhausted, sleep deprived state on icy roads (no snow tires) and took a look around then signed the papers. I move in tomorrow. I just really hope this all works out and my health improves.

Cath, I really don't think I can start from absolute scratch as I will need to bring some things from here. I don't think everything has black mold spores on it as some rooms are worse than others. There are certain rooms where I wouldn't take anything but other rooms where it seems half decent, although, there is moldy air being blown through the vents. Also everything does have that musty smell to it, even in the "good" rooms. What's the worst that can happen if some mold spores get transferred to the new place? Surely it wouldn't make things as bad as they are here, right?

This is an important step forward for you and I'm glad to hear about this.
