After a year and a half of being sick, not able to work, and losing 50 of my 175 lbs(22.7 of my 80kgs) I believe I have discovered the root cause of my sickness. A few weeks ago my father came by my cabin to bring me supplies because I was too sick to leave to get them on my own....he noticed something weird. On my walls was a weird looking colour. Upon closer expection we discovered it was several types of mold!!!
A MOVE
To test the idea, I moved out of my cabin and into my Aunt's house. Within a week I was feeling a lot better. And it's now been 7 weeks and I've not been sick. So I feel pretty confident that it was/is the primary cause of my poor health.
THE PLAN TO FIX IT
After a few weeks of being at my aunt's, I realized that the mold was probably the issue. So I got some bleach, a squirt bottle, some rags, and some face masks. I started in cleaning every surface in the house. All the clothing and bedding stuff, and the walls, floor and ceiling of every room. I only have one room left to go and I will begin painting with a special primer called Kilz 3. It specifically is designed to cover and kill mold and mildew.
MOVING BACK IN
I am hopeful that by this weekend I will be able to move back in and I won't have any more issues. But I will be very cautious and if I start to feel ill again I will be moving back out.
A BETTER LONG TERM SOLUTION
I believe a big part of the mold issue is that I live in the middle of a Forrest and because of that the humidity is very high. I can't run a dehumidifier because I live off grid and have limited power. However, a friend has recently given me a mobile home that I am going to move into the field I own, to get me into the sunshine and lower humidity. It is in pretty good shape and only needs a little work. I will have to move it from its current location....but that's only a couple minutes from where the homestead is.
A BELIEF IN BETTER DAYS
I have faith that life is going to get back to normal for me. Soon I will be back on the homestead with my puppies who miss me so badly. Only seeing me briefly each day is making them a little sad...and me to.
STAY STRONG AND KEEP YOUR FAITH
The year and a half of my life has been a powerful struggle. Their have been days I wished the Lord would take me so I wouldn't suffer. But he always came to me and told me my work here is not done and that through my suffering I would gain strength and be a stronger witness to others who are suffering. While I fought with how to handle it, I never doubted him. I am strong again, and will use my strength to help those that are in their moments of weakness. I hope and pray you can and will do the same. It's the times that test us the most that make us the strongest. Keep your faith, never give up, love and help those in need and always believe. Faith in a higher being and trusting in that voice that speaks to us inside our soul is an amazing power. Listen for and to that higher being and love all people, animals and our beautiful Earth. I love you all, and wish yous the best.🤗🤗
