Asthma Mold
Q.
I have 7 kids. Ages 17, 11, 5, 3, 3, 2, and 2. I moved into this apartment 2 1/2 yrs. ago.
Since I've been here, my last 5 kids have been diagnosed with asthma. My 5 yr. old can't
breathe at night. My other 4 wheeze. My 17 yr old has all kinds of stomach problems, she
gets diarrhea a lot, and thinks it's a social problem. My 11 yr. old coughs and feels sick,
while visiting (he lives with his father.) My 5 yr old just had an ultrasound for 2 urinary
tract infection within a month, they found ecoli in the culture. I've had
headaches everyday for over 3 months, last year I suffered bloody noses.
These headaches rarely go away with Excedrin migraine, Motrin, Motrin
migraine, you name it, I've done it. My question is, could this be related
to the super mold in my basement? My basement is covered. Everything I
stored down there when I moved in is completely covered. My whole apt. is
damp constantly. What can I do?

All of the mold health symptoms that your family is suffering are possible health consequences
of living in a place that is mold contaminated. Most landlords will not spend money to test
apartments for mold or to remove dangerous mold from apartments. Because of the severe health
damage being suffered by your family and because of the uncooperative landlord attitude, your
best strategy is to find a mold-free place to live and get out of your present apartment as
soon as you possibly can. Alternatively, seek out a legal aid society attorney to go after
your landlord [e.g., sue] for failing to provide a habitable apartment and for the health
damage to your family. Read
landlord mold liability.
