My family living in Nicaragua knows what it is like to be without water. Where my son lives, they can be without water for 6 or 7 days before a water truck comes around to deliver water. Water for bathing and cleaning. The must buy drinking water. His family is well enough off that they can afford this, but what of the families who can't? We also have a shortage on the homestead. We need to ration the water since we don't know when the wells will dry up. Thanks for posting this. The word needs to spread...
