My Bizarre Odyssey into Mold and Lyme Hell, and Back: A true story of tragedy and triumph over chronic illness and loss caused by toxic mold and Lyme Disease (The Chronicles of Hadley)
A real life drama of the fight for my life after getting sick from toxic mold and Lyme Disease, losing just about everything, then finally being able to recover my health and my life What happened when I found toxic mold in my house You'll read about the absolute hell that I went through after discovering toxic mold in my house. The events that unfolded after that were so bizarre, so surreal, so horrifying that now it's still hard to believe that I went through it all. It was truly an odyssey, an unfolding drama where, it seemed, every door was locked, every corner I turned presented another obstacle, and every possibility became an improbability. My house was totally ripped apart in the mold remediation. And the illness caused by the mold made me sick to the point of being in pain most of the time with depression and suicidal thoughts, and even an attempt. I had to make important decisions in my life while I had "brain fog" which prevents the ability to think. So, I made many bad decisions which made my situation worse. I was never able to live in my house again and ended up losing practically everything. It was a quest to find a place to live and ended up in a couple house shares with strangers, at one point with a confirmed psychopath. Lyme Disease and what it can do to the body As my journey continued I found out that I had Lyme Disease and became so toxic (with the neurotoxins from the mold and Lyme disease) that life became unreal for me, a de-realization and depersonalization took over. While this was happening, I developed Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, MCS, as well as Electrical Sensitivity, ES, also referred to as Electrical Hyper Sensitivity, EHS. It made finding a "safe" place to live nearly impossible. The odyssey is mostly about trying to find a safe place to stay when I had painful reactions being near any electromagnetic fields (including all wireless technologies), certain chemicals and any mold or bacteria. It is a fight also against the medical establishment and their ignorance of chronic, environmental or toxic illnesses. Because of the their ignorance, I was put in a hospital which created a whole new scenario of pain and drama, where they said "it's all in your head." It was a struggle for my sanity against a world that's so embedded in the pharmaceutical companies, "big pharma," that they actually ignore patients' concerns and symptoms, and make them worse. The road back to wellness and sanity Fortunately, I was able to find the right doctor and support psychologist to help me to get better. The psychologist kept me sane and the doctor helped me with the illness. There is a genetic component to people who get really sick from mold or Lyme. This was the case with me and the work of Dr. Richie Shoemaker made it possible for me to get better when all odds were against me, and the fatalistic outlook from the brain fog made it seem like the hell would never end. But I made it back from the abyss and got better and was able to rebuild my life. This story, it is my hope, will inspire others who are suffering from some chronic or environmental illness to keep fighting to get better. You are not alone and it is not "all in your head." I lay out what I did to protect myself along the way and the modalities I used to get my health back. You can get better too. This adventure will help you and point you in the right direction.
