Less fortunate countries

  Struggling to survive

    Africans getting sick with

      Stomach pains and vomiting.

        They will never know how rewarding

        it is to always be healthy.

        They spend their days in hot

       heat, hoping and praying they

      will not become sick. underdeveloped

    health care. unclean

  water causing illness that 

    thousands may die from. 

      The rest of the world does care.

        We are not taking our health for graunted.

          People dress in so much plastic 

            smells like disinfectant to

          cover up the smell of death. Covering

         up the smell of death. Sick Africans dying.

       EBOLA.
