Deadly

The slight misfit caused carbon monoxide, the poisonous gas was leaking in their home. Carbon monoxide is a harmful gas that is colorless and odorless. One cannot tell if it is in the atmosphere or not. Once exposed, it overtakes oxygen in the blood. And that’s where all Kathi’s signs were coming from.

Symptoms

Carbon monoxide can directly affect the heart, brain, and vital organs. A little exposure to it can result in fatigue, nausea, headaches, chest pains, and dizziness. In Kathi’s case, she was inhaling the life-threatening gas for years which caused vomiting, muscle weakness, fainting, and confusion. It might also cause the death of a person. The question was how Kathi was never diagnosed for a decade?

Never Lied

“I felt like an 80-year-old woman stuck in a 40-year-old body. I would get dizzy, lightheaded, bronchitis, pneumonia. I lost the ability to use my left leg. Then it started moving to my right leg. I would get nervous twitches. I got to the point I couldn’t concentrate anymore,” Kathi recalls the never-ending years.

It Made Sense

“They kept testing and testing and testing and everything kept saying ‘No, no, no, no, you’re fine. The more I stayed home, the more I slept, the more I got sick,” told Kathi. During these years her husband and daughter were diagnosed with chronic bronchitis and bouts of pneumonia, but the family never thought it all could be connected.

The Contractors

“They were being poisoned. On the ceiling, that’s the wrong spot to put it. Carbon monoxide is heavier than air. It would go closer to the floor,” told Brothers Contracting’s, Mike Evans. “This actually was the worst I’ve ever seen,” told another partner, Duran.

Answers

Everything was now making sense to Kathi and her family. “I was shocked,” she said. They came to rescue her when there were no hopes left. Kathi was speechless. Her miseries and the years that she spent in the home can never be compensated but she finally got free from it and was thankful to the angels who saved her from the slow death.
