I can't vouch for this story, though some of you may know about it. It was told to me by a friend, and concerns somone living in America. A family with a very expensive house, all the extras, experienced flooding. The insurance company didn't want to pay up. While the arguing was going on, the family continued to live in the house, and the son and husband became ill. On a plane trip the wife happened to sit next to an expert in mold. Later, she decided to call him in to examine the house. They were told to get out of the house immediately, and not take anything at all from the house with them, as there was a very bad kind of mold there. The son improved in health, but the husband is permanently damaged. I may not have full or correct details, but that is the gist of it. If anyone has a link to the full, correct story (there could be a transcript of a TV program or something) I'd like to have it.
