This picture was taken at Buffalo Springs Herb Farm.FCW has been ill for over a week now - violent cough and nausea, hardly eating anything. He's been to the doctor twice. I've had a little cough too but otherwise I'm okay.
I think we both started coughing from mold allergy. We had a plumbing leak behind a wall in the bathroom for a long time. The plumber came out the first time two months ago. He fixed the shower handles that time; second time found nothing wrong but said we would have to make a hole in the wall to be certain. Dampness on the outside wall remained and one of the floor tiles was always damp, so finally Frank opened up a big hole behind the shower. Al fixed the leak but the smell of mold came into the house. Within a day we both started coughing.
We bought a dehumidifier, sprayed bleach in the wall and let it dry for a few days. Bought a light plastic access door and Frank installed it. Finally the air seems to be cleaner. Of course, the rainy spell we had did not help the situation.
