Life in Nebraska ....

These pictures are my little treasure. Mathias will never remember these moments but they're precious to me. The emotions of a grandmother and mother are all shown in these pics. Thanks for being the understanding and joy and love and prayers mom. I love you.

So today I took the boys over to Mom B's and came home and worked with Matt on getting all the stuff out of the boys' room.  The information we've gathered along this mold journey  is that this mold could be toxic. And how to know is expensive so we're just pretending it's the worst kind and trying to clean accordingly.  So far the closet is sealed off with plastic and the intake vent is also sealed off.  We've got the windows open and a fan blowing out.    But onto the emptying of the room!  You should have seen the junk I went through. It's amazing to me that that room contained all that stuff.  So the question keeps coming up....do we throw everything or is it possible to clean it? We've chosen to clean.  I read somewhere that borax cleans laundry of mold and same for furnishing and toys and all that.  So we put everything in plastic bags and trucked it outside.  It was a coolish windy sunny day and we're hoping God's great out ...

What can any of my friends tell me about mold?  We have an almost three year old who is sick ALL the time with runny nose, coughing lots of guck, circles under the eyes, rash on his face, not eating right and gaggy about things.  We took him to the doctor last week and she looked at him and declared it to be an airborne allergy thing.   So we came home and discoverd MOLD in the boys' bedroom closet ceiling! Now what do we do? The experts tell us that we're kind of up a creek without a paddle.  What has been your experiences.  Do air purifiers help at least a little bit?  What can we do until we can get that stuff ripped out of there?  Any and all advice will please me a lot!
