PUBLIC POST update for friends who dont belong to LJ...
so to recap:
Wayne is in the hospital with what MAY be a mold allergy related illness, or may not... they have ruled a lot of stuff OUT but we do not have answers yet as to what it may BE. (at least they ruled out pulmonary embolism.)
i have been pretty ill, with what may be the mold and bleach (mold cleanup) or may be stress, or may be both.
i have missed a week and a half of school between my illness, his going to various doctors, and the hospital... so i will have to withdraw from this quarter and re take it. we are trying to get this done in a way i dont have to pay for it all again, but it doesnt look good.
dad is out of the hospital (pneumonia and other problems) and is in the high level care wing of the retirement community. he is improving... you can tell because he is really wanting to go home. mom is stressed but ok.
i hired 1 800 got junk to come clean out the basement so i could bleach and dry it more thoroughly. figured to do it while wayne wasnt here to avoid stirring up more mold, and so he doesnt get tempted to dive into the trash and "save that". i did tell him in advance. i did give him the chance to tell me on the phone what (if anything) to save. we FILLED a truck of theirs.
nice boys, i was impressed.
i am trying to clean and organize the UPSTAIRS enough to even have them come back. right now the stuff that needs to go is kind of buried under "no, i need that" and vice versa.
we are getting a new bed. a sleep number bed. partly because we both wake up very sore, our bed is old. partly because they do not harbor as much mold and dust mite issues.
basic update
