In America, we take for granted the availability of clean drinking water. Here, when my water comes out of the tap across the street its brown. To make it ok to drink I boil it, filter it, and put a drop of bleach in it. The summer has arrived here, so I am drinking more water than before and turning my stove on to boil it turns my room into an oven. The other day I misjudged and ran out of clean water. Big mistake! Diarrhea, vomit, fever. ugh! The fever broke and I am starting to feel better.
Ugh! So sorry you were sick! Swaziland does that to everyone at some point I think.
ReplyDeleteTo combat the boiling water turning my house into an oven thing I would solar purify (and filter) my water in the summer. Have you tried that? I think there's a page in Where the is no Doctor about it...
