Reviewing the conflict of Akeer’s illness, what do you suppose Nya and her family should do? Should they stay at the camp and let Akeer heal on her own or should they begin the long hard walk and hope they reach there on time? chapter 5-8

Nya’s father decides Akeer must go, so Nya’s mother and Nya take Akeer to the special place. It is a big white tent with sick and hurt people, and many doctors and nurses. The nurse explains to Nya’s mother that Akeer is sick from bad water and that if the water is dirty it must be boiled. Nya’s mother nods, but Nya knows this is nearly impossible. They can only procure tiny amounts of water from the lakebed, and if it were boiled it would evaporate before they could drink it. I don't think I can make that call. Having a sick child in the middle of a brutal civil war is not in my experience. Any judgment I make on this would be ill-informed.
