Years ago in St. Joseph, MO, the Missouri River flooded our water treatment plant which shut down the water supply. Fortunately,
there were towns around us with water, and our fire department was bringing in water so that you could go to the fire station and get
drinking water. We had a pool, so we trucked water from the pool to use for flushing toilets. It was doable, for a week, even with small kids.

Your situation is nothing like that. Good luck finding a way out and finding a place to stay. You should be able to transfer prescriptions
if you have the containers and take them with you. In fact, according to a rule I just found, prescriptions are to be transferred within 4 hours
of the request according to the Texas State Board of Pharmacy.

Be safe. Keep letting us know how you are doing whenever you can. nt tblue37 Aug 2017 #1
