I have brought it up several times, even mentioned that mold might have a lot to do with my health issues. But they don’t want to acknowledge the problem, partly I’m sure because it would be so expensive to fix and they aren’t exactly rich either. Even though there are a few places where there used to be visible black mold, like under the sink which I cleaned out thoroughly but couldn’t get behind the counter without tearing out cupboards, or where I had to remove part of the ceiling from water damage caused by a roof leak, they say I already fixed it and that it’s too dry here for mold to thrive further in where I can’t see or get to. They’re elderly and set in their ways, and even though they’re generous, sometimes if I mention problems with the place, they aren’t above reminding me how much they’re already doing by letting me stay here basically for free.
