At my wits end!!!!!!!

First of all, calm down. How do you know it's formaldehyde? Take her to an ER or talk to a dr. Call the Social worker and tell her your circumstances. Be calm. Pay your mortgage if you can. keep things stable --- The health dept. will call --- the EPA? why didn't you call instead of emailing? Why didn't you call your dr for your apt? If the meds are working , give them time. You are being a little bit irrational and need to settle down for your daughter's sake anyways. I guess I' m behind here but if you suspect the trailer of formaldehyde, why have you not told the park manager??? Get yourself calm . Your daughter needs you in a good frame of mind. Get yourself calm.

MMmmm, I don`t know if you tell the park owners what would happen. It might make them mad. Especially since you didn`t pay your mortgage. Do you have the phone number for the EPA guy or just an email? I would keep calling until I got some answers if it was me. This is a serious problem and they need to do something about it. I hope you find a place babe. Save your mortgage money so you have something saved to move somewhere. Even if it`s a motel for a few weeks.

Calm down honey. Your daughter needs you. I would keep looking for apartments. As for your daughter being sick, it may just be what is going around. There is 73 kids absent at the high school today. I am not sure I would go into another trailer, especially if it is not big enough. Hopefully they will get back to you soon. Just sit tight.

I know where I live it takes a few months to get evicted. First, You have to be a certain amount of time late on the rent(usually 30 days). Then, they have to put it in writing that you have to leave(giving you another 30 days). After that, you still have another 30 days until they can take you to court. Depending on your judge, you could still get even more time. You DON'T have to leave until the Sheriff/Magistrate puts a notice on your door. ONLY the Sheriff or Magistrate can throw you out right then and there but all the other processes have to be gone through first. If you put it in writing what your suspicions are and ask them to test the home or make whatever repairs need done, they have 30 days to fix the problem. If they don't do it, you don't have to pay the rent until they do it. I'd call an attorney for a free consultation though, to find out the laws in your state. I wish you the best of luck. I feel for you, Hon.

Hun you're doing a great job, you've been working hard I know but you just have to give it time. There's only so much you can do in one day.. remember baby steps. I understand the situation is urgent, but please give yourself some credit you've been working you tale off trying to figure this out, and you're doing a great job. By all means you need to pay that mortgage sweety because the last thing you need is to be put out on the streets. Tomorrow call those numbers I gave you for the manufacturer, also call your local housing authority explain the situation. Maybe they can get you into some emergency housing until your mobile can be tested. You're doing a great job, and you're doing the best you can. Pay the mortgage tomorrow first thing ok because you really need that stability especially if it comes out that there is formaldehyde and you end up taking this to court. You want to keep your end of the situation clean. After paying the mortgage make those phone calls. I'll look up the number to housing authority and PM you with it. Sending you hugs and love,.. Shell

I am so sorry for what you are going through, sweetie! You should try calling your social worker. It might not help, but it definitely can't hurt. I do know that they can't just show up at your door and kick you out, well at least not in our state. I'm not sure whether or not it varies from state to state, but I'm sure the laws are somewhat similar across the board. We owned a two-story rental property for a while, and the people were months behind in their rent with no attempts to pay, and we still had to jump through hoops to evict them, even though they destroyed the apartment, too! I know that getting behind is frustrating and can cause a panic attack, but you are doing what you think is right for your family, and that is the best that you can do.

Yes Sweetie I have been I lost my House due to falling ill and not being able to work any more It is awful I know but I am happy renting now it is so much easier Ok first thing, call your Social Worker so that she can help you, that is what they are there for Second calm down, you need to for your little Girls sake, yes I know it is hard to stay calm and strong but you have to Sweetie, I know what you are going through You need the help of your Social Worker now as you can not do this alone any more, also Hubby will give in to, so do not let this happen Tell your Social Worker everything, you see if she is involved now then if they foreclose on you she will have to find you somewhere specially as you have a sick Child Also have you checked if you are getting everything that you are entitled to for little one You are classed as her Carer and can't go out to work because your Baby is sick and needs you I know it gets frustrating and annoying, but do check that you are entitled to what you are suppose to get Please Sweet calm down, I know what I am talking about when I say that as many a time I have had to say to myself, Calm down, nothing will be solved if I get in a State I hope little one will be ok Call the Social Worker and get them to help Sweetheart You are in my thoughts and please let me know how you get on If you want to talk to me on the Phone send me your Number and I shall ring you as the calls for me are free for n hour Big warm Hugs to you

You poor lady! I think you were on the right track when you mentioned calling your social worker. If anyone could help you or at least direct you to someone who could I would think it would be her. Also, visit your City Human Services Dept. They will often help families come up with deposit money or first months rent to get into a place. You are in an emergency situation really and so I think you may qualify. As for them throwing you out, I believe there is a court procedure that they have to follow in order to do that legally. I don't think they can just surprise you and show up on your doorstep. I believe the papers have to be served by a sheriff and give you 30 days to move or fight the eviction. I hope that things turn around for you soon here. I know you have been going thru this battle for a time now and it is about time something went your way. Best of luck to you and do keep us updated.

I think I told you before but I'm not sure. You need to pray. Just give yourself to God and pray. Then check the classifieds for rentals. A place to live is better than no place at all. I've short paid my rent more than once. Thank God I have an understanding landlord ! This month I'm short paying the bank. Well, they won't renew my loan anyway, so why not ? Pray, sweetie, that's not fool's advice. I know what I'm talking about.

Well it is night now, but like everybody said, calm down and think out a plan. Call the EPA, call the social worker, notify the trailer park, stay on the phone until you find somebody who can help. btw I used to work for a mortgage company and they have to give you notice. They can't just foreclose and kick you out. Find out what the laws in your state are, but you do have some time to think this out. Hugs...

I am sorry that I don't have any answers for you. I would certainly contact the social worker and see what they have to say. Keep taking your meds and breath, I mean deep breathing. You will be in my prayers. Susie.

call your local State rep or Governor and tell them how the EPA is ignoring you. If you can get them or the their "people" to look into it. Mention that you are a voter and they tend to get things moving along. If need be mention you are willing to go to the papers with how the EPA and State reps ignored you. They tend to move their butts when stuff like that is said.

I would call your local housing authority and find out who there is in your area for community housing resources. They may test your home for you but they will help you find a new place to live. I would try and get out as fast as possible. Best wishes and I will say a prayer for you and your family. Keep your head up and stay focused and you will be okay.

I commented on your situation in an earlier discussion you had. It seems things have gotten worse. I'm so sorry for that. You should contact your social worker just in case you can't find a place. Explain the situation and see if there is any temporary place they will allow you to stay in. I believe I mentioned earlier about yogic breathing exercises. At this point I think you may want to do them first. They will calm your nerves and you will be able to think clearer. Just go online and look up pranayama. You can begin by doing some deep breathing. Inhale as much as you can, hold for a couple of seconds and release. You have to maintain your clarity for your child's sake. Have you seen the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness". It is a good movie to watch for inspiration. Even if you have seen it, then please watch it again. Also remember that there is someone watching over you, and although the situation seems bleak, in time all things work out for the best.

I am so sorry that sounds like a terrible situation to be in. Do you have anyone you can stay with until they come and look at it or until you can find some place else to live? It sounds like your daughter needs to get out of there as soon as possible. They can not foreclose on you due to environmental reasons they can how ever make you evacuate the premisis until the sourse of he contaminent can be found and repaired if possible. Do you have home owners insurance? You may want to check over you home owners insurance policy to see if it covers this type of problem at all. I would also check with local churches to see if they can provide you with any assistance, they might be able to help you find temporary housing or at least provide a safe place to sleep at night free from what ever is making your daughter sick until you can figure out what is going on. I wish you all the best.

Hi babyangie27, my condolences with your health problems and housing. my prayers are with you. i hope things work out for you. hang in there and do your best to hold on.

....Hi babyangie27, At this time you should be trying to find someone you could stay with temporarily, until you find another house. Forget foreclosure, it takes some six months to foreclose on a home, after you have been delinquent for at least four months. Call a bank that mortgages trailers, if you don't want to all your own company, to find out what the timing would be on foreclosures. But you need to leave, I would not pay the mortgage, you need the money. You have a law suit here based on your health problems, paying the mortgage has not a thing to do it that. Please get out of the trailer, also, I would not, not go to another trailer! Move as soon as you can, forget about the test from the Health Department, they will be able to test whether you are living there or not. As someone else suggested, call social services, to see if they can help you with housing. I would move to a shelter. You are worried about people coming to visit you, you are going to be sick, if you don't move. Tell the park officials after you move. Why do you keep risking your family and your health? Please do not allow this situation to paralyze you into doing nothing. Take care.
