With a groan, you pull yourself to your feet. You start walking, hoping that youâll find help.
As the sun climbs higher in the sky, the air grows warmer. Youâre still cold, but itâs getting better. By noon, youâre hot. Your water is gone, and your body has stopped sweating. You find a tiny pool of waterâonly a few sipsâand slurp it greedily.
You come upon a narrow dirt road. Your heart races, knowing that you must be getting closer to civilization. About an hour later, you see a cloud of dust approaching. Itâs a truck. You wave your arms frantically as it approaches. Youâre filled with joy as it stops.
âMedico, por favor!â you shout. It means, âDoctor, please!â Your Spanish isnât great, but that message is more than clear.
The driver jumps out of the truck and helps you into the passenger seat. Soon youâre bouncing down the road with a jug of precious water in hand, headed back to civilization.
It was a close call, but youâve made it. Youâre going to be all right.
