Ditto.
My fiance and her mother were both hospitalized after a severe mold problem in the building she was renting for her buisness. A couple months after moving into the place, there was a heavy rain and the basement flooded. After a few days, she and her mother starting having chest pains and trouble breathing. Her mother got to the point where she was coughing up blood and had to be taken to the emergency room. Both of them ended up having to get treated for toxic mold exposure.
They had the place tested and found black mold growning behind all the walls in the basement. I don't know the name off hand, but the mold they found is suposed to be one of the most toxic. Both of them had asthma to begin with, which made them more susceptible, but telling people not to worry about the mold problem in their house is extremely bad advise, especially if they have older peope or small children in the house.
