Well, the mold is black/greenish and slimey looking.
Interesting enough, a woman from my church had recently told me this very thing:
" A friend of mine had their house flood several years ago, we helped them move their stuff. For some reason, your house has that same distinct smell."
I was kind of "put off" by that thinking my house must stink but I think she smelled mold. I likely can't smell it since I live in it.
It's all under the entire house. They went under the crawl space.
They think it could be in the sheetrock as well- I have complained for a year that black mold grows on the bathroom wall and ceiling- I constantly have to use Clorox to keep it off of there.
From what they are thinking.. it sounds like we will have to move asap. They are going to have to gut the whole place.
This is a nightmare.. but at the same time, it is possibly an answer to prayers.
Even my 5 year old has had chronic tummy aches with fever and they thought it could be appendix. From what I have read, toxic mold can even do that!
It would explain my mental state as of late; also my constantly feeling fatigued, achy, headaches, flu like, and "mental fog."
I kind of feel like I am in a bad nightmare that is getting worse with every passing month.
Dad is dying,
Autistic son having serious issues right now,
5 year old with chronic tummy aches,
my mental state,
my physical state,
some serious church/job issues,
now we will have to move,
I just had it out with my in laws..It gets better and better.
Yes, that is a "poor, pity me" cry but nonetheless, it felt good to say it.
*BIG SIGH*
