Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Michigan

mold

The property I was renting made me very sick and I noticed mold in the closet and on the wall. I could not sleep in my bedroom and my children are having respiratory issues. I am renting a trailer home and the property manager said it was in my head. They finally came out and repaired a water leak, however, I asked them to only do this when I am there and they did not. They repainted and replaced the carpet but I do not think the took care of the mold. When I approach the manager about this issue he starts screaming and pointing his fingure at me. I had given him a name of a remediation company that explained that he should have the air tested, they finally did the report came back positive. However, I had to threaten legal action just to get page 1 of a 23 page report. They have just recently moved me into another trailer. My doctor said all my health issues sound related to mold and they want t do a lung biopsy. Do I have any legal grounds to sue and recover expenses?? What about all my belongings, should they be replaced? Did I just move the mold with me?
