Mom Spent $300K Fighting Mold After Daughter Got Sick—Worst Was Yet To Come
Meghan May thought the money they had spent on fixing the mold issues was the end of it.
Meghan May, a North Carolina consultant, spent over $300,000 attempting to remediate mold contamination in her home after her middle daughter, Agnes, began to exhibit concerning symptoms. These symptoms included severe anxiety, OCD behaviors, handwriting deterioration and difficulty in school. Agnes' parents initially suspected the mold in their home was the cause, but after extensive testing and remediation the problem proved to be far more extensive than they had anticipated.
In 2025, the family was once again forced to tear apart walls and remove contaminated belongings as hidden mold was discovered in multiple areas of the home. Despite the significant financial and emotional toll, May remains hopeful that identifying and correcting the underlying moisture issues will finally create a healthy environment for her daughter.
