We are currently renting a trailer. Started with a 1yr lease and it has now turned into a month to month lease. Both my son and I continually get sick, both different sicknesses. He is a year old and his is a rash all over his feet and spots of it on his legs, genitals, and face. We have been battling it for 6 months now. I have sinus problems. My ear feel like they popped and never unpopped so I have a hard time hearing for about 5 months now. Both doctors believe the our health problems have to do with the old trailer we live in, possibly black mold. I have asked my landlord to check multiple times and he hasn't and its been 3 months. Ive left vmails, letters with my rent, and spoke to him personally and nothing has been done. If I hire someone to check and its found is my landlord required to do anything to help us move because I don't have the money to just up and move right now but can't continue to be sick. I live in Baldwin Co AL

You are month to month... its on you to move if you don't wish to remain there... sorry but that's how it is.
