After Jon had replaced the cracked skylight, it was time to
treat the water stains on the motorhome shower ceiling. That was my job, and I
was nervous about ruining the carpet-like fabric on the ceiling.
I watched several YouTube videos and tested a 1:1 bleach and water solution in a corner of the shower ceiling. The dark stain was so ugly that I figured I couldn’t make it worse. The good news was that it was just a stain--there was no moldy smell.
After taping around the ceiling and applying plastic to protect the wallpaper, I was ready to start. I masked and gloved for protection, then mixed my bleach solution in a spray bottle--1 cup of bleach with 1 cup of water. My first attempt was to apply the solution with a sponge. It was working but was too slow and drippy.
I waited a day for the ceiling to dry and to see if the
stains were gone. Nope. The stains were lighter but still visible. I hit it again with the spray bleach solution. It took four treatments over a week before I was satisfied. Jon says it looks as good as new!

Jonathan has devised a method to climb a ladder safely, even
though he has Parkinson’s disease. His balance is affected by PD, so I was
worried that he might fall off the ladder. But he is determined to repair the
motorhome roof himself—he’s the best repairman! April is Parkinson's Awareness Month, so this story is fitting.
Jon ordered mountain-climbing gear from Amazon. No, he’s not a mountain climber. But with special gear—a harness, two different ropes, carabiners, and a ladder, Jon was determined that he could motorhome-climb to replace the leaky skylight. He spent hours watching YouTube videos and practicing the technique to tie the necessary unique knots. He won’t hit the ground if he falls off the roof or the ladder.
Jon's rope system and harness work so well that I don't feel
like I have to be there while he works. If he loses his balance and slips off the ladder, he won't hit the ground.
He's a Parkinson's Warrior!
