Mold

It came as no surprise to me that my nose swab came back as positive for mold. A few weeks ago I did the mold testing in the house and all of the petri dished grew mold. I have two strains of mold living up my nostrils. Alternaria and Cladosporium. I need two different types of nose sprays to kill off these nasties. One is about $90 and the other is $180. Insane. I will not be getting those until I get insurance! They said that most likely the hubs and son have mold as well. So, today I am taking my son to get his nose swabbed. If he is positive then we are gunna have to get my husband tested as well. We have to do something about this mold situation in our home. As if I didn't have enough on my plate...


We are really having a tough time of it financially. We are going to have to take my son out of school in a few months and that means I can only work on weekends if I even am able to keep that up for much longer. All of these medical expenses and prescriptions are making things that much worse. We are going to apply for insurance this week hopefully.


I got my test kit in from IgeniX. I really REALLY want to be tested for Lyme and Co-Infections through them. That is going to cost right over $1000. I think that it is absolutely necessary. I need to sell some things in order to help with that cost. My wedding dress being at the top of that list.


Onto a more positive subject. I got to get out of the house this weekend. Friday I went with my mother in law and a bunch of other family to see my step-daughter perform the lead in the musical "once on this island." She was really good. She turned 18 on Saturday! I have now known her for HALF her life! :) I can't believe how time flies.


We also took my son to Monkey Joe's on Saturday. I surprised myself my being able to climb up the huge slide WHILE carrying my son about 3 times. It absolutely wore me out and that night and the next morning my joints hurt soooo bad. But it was worth it, as he had a BLAST! We also got popsicles! He got spiderman and I got a spongebob! He is really into spiderman these days.
