I have family in WV who also live that same way. No electric, running water, and a outhouse. I am glad for these. They help me a lot. I am very blessed. I hope everyone is having a great evening!! ~ Hi , You mean you have kin people here who still don't have electricity and indoor plumbing? The last folks I knew personally who didn't have an indoor bathroom was my ex-husband's family. They finally put one in maybe 10 years ago, but they still keep the outhouse for emergencies. I know of several churches around here that just got indoor plumbing in the last 10 years too. I haven't known anyone in my life time who didn't have electricity, but I know plenty of folks who don't have TV cable or a phone. What part of WV is your family in? I live in Ridgeview, in Boone County. {{{Hugs}}} Jacqui Jacqui McCallister Age: 39 Dx'd with FMS: 1995, but symptoms since 1984 Approved for SSI Disability: June 18, 2002 Additional Illnesses: Papillary Thyroid Cancer spread to lungs, Intra-Ocular Migraines, TMJ, Allergies, Periodontitis, Mitral Valve Prolapse, IBS, Osteoarthritis, MPS and CFS, Congenital Hip Dysplasia, Osteopenia, Bunions, Heel Spur, Light/Smell/Sound Sensitivities, Motion Sickness, Sleep Problems, Depression, Anxiety Location: Ridgeview, West Virginia USA Divorced, no kids.
