In 2010, Nashville experiences an unlikely yet extremely
devastating natural disaster, the infamous flood. Hundreds, even thousands of
families in Williamson, Davidson a, Rutherford and other counties in Tennessee
were uprooted from their homes. Not inches, but feet of water covered the
roads, flooded the sewer system. Then it started to get scary, families;
basements were drowning in water within a few days. Mothers and fathers did
their best to reassure their little ones that everything was fine as the water
climbed higher and higher, destroying furniture, floors, and other expensive
belongings in its path. By the end of the week some families actually had to
use canoes to gain access to the second story of their homes. They loaded the
small boats, over countless trips with as many clothes, and personal belongings
as possible; trying to salvage what was left of their tangible memories.
Prior to this unexpected event, Nashville had never
experienced flooding. Children of all ages were mesmerized at first at the height
of the water covering the roads. They even got a bit excited because the flood
led to a day or two of school closings, but this fascination was short lived.
The kids were actually swimming in the flooding waters with no knowledge that
the sewer systems had actually overflowed and they were swimming in human
waste! Animals were drinking from the overflowing dirty water, causing many to
come down with strange illnesses. Some beloved family pets even died from water
poisoning causing disrupted families even more grief.
Even worse than the furry friends that were affected by the
strange tragedy, most of the drinking systems in Williamson and Davidson County
were contaminated with the sewer water as well. The water was filtered enough
so that it didn’t look like there were any bacteria in their water, when in
actuality it was worse than actually taking a sip from your toilet bowl.
Hundreds of people became violently ill. People actually became afraid to drink
the water in their sinks at home. They rushed to any grocery store, gas
station, and even fast food restaurants where they could buy bottled water to
stock up. Tennessee was in a state of panic with no idea when their water
sources would be clean and safe to drink or use again.
When the rain finally stopped and the water began to recede,
Nashville was left in a state of devastating destruction. We are now quickly
approaching the five-year anniversary of that scary spring and yet so many
people have yet to install water purification systems in their home. Don’t wait
