bangkok flood - stress

his fren was thinner by 5kg because of the thailand flood. his fren and his wife live and work in thailand. they just moved into their newly rented house in bangkok's suburb, for less a month, and the flood hit.

the water level reached almost 1m. they had to move their new furnitures upstairs and on top of table tops.... they kept the fridge power on to keep the food inside fresh. then they left for a rented apartment. they had to park their car in an over-head highway to avoid the flood water.

when they came back to their house 2 weeks later, the fridge was tilted, floating on a 70cm water. they had to turn the power off, for fear of electrocution.

when they return one week later, the fridge smelt awful, the food had rotten.

then another week.... then they had to clean and wash the house, the surroundings, when water finally receded.

all this while, he had to work, going to the factory on boat. then the factory also inundated. he had to work in the main office downtown bangkok, while going back to teh factory to move things away. when water subsided, he was tasked to clean up the whole factory.....
