John lives with his wife, Dawna, and six other relatives in a mobile home with bad water. "The water is really nasty here," he says." The water is pretty much contaminated. We won't drink it, it turns clothes orange, it makes your skin itch, too, when you take a shower. But we ain't got much choice." He travels to a nearby town to fill plastic jugs with clean water.
