My wife just showed me this documentary and it chronicles the incredible tribulations these people are going through. I was amazed because it took me a long time to believe what she was going through. Almost all of these people have identical stories matching hers to the letter. People find it so hard to believe something so tiny can have such an enormous effect on people. This documentary is profound in its ability to explain what we went through in 2014 and are still battling back against on a daily basis. She was almost 50% back to normal within 3 days of beginning treatments yet only 80% back after 15 months since it truly is everywhere.

Sorry for the long post but it is something I feel may help someone you know.
 
I forgot to mention that Dr. Shoemaker who is one of the doctors in the movie is the one who originally diagnosed her in 2005 with two genes that make her highly susceptible to the mycotoxins of some molds. In 2014 he was instrumental in her treatment that allowed her to live at home again after we had the remediation done.

I can no longer store my winter supply of wood in the basement since each stick has 1 million spores on average which really sucks big-time!

However she isn't allergic to the types of mold that are commonly found on wood(basidiospores). I guess I'll count my blessings that I still get to burn wood period.
