Replace "Haiti" with "Arizona" and the message is essentially the same.

‘It is simply best not to get pregnant’: women left terrified as Haiti’s maternity services collapse
With the tree, I was thinking along the lines of termites and/or other bugs.
What a rigamarole! I didn't even think that far into it! It just looked like a bad idea, and you gave a good explanation why. I'm also pretty sure having a full-sized dead tree in the house isn't the best idea either. I bet this house looked good on paper...

Not gonna lie, Lustron homes are pretty cool (too bad they don't look that comfortable): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustron_house property: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/318-11th-Ave-New-Glarus-WI-53574/40281661_zpid/
Sadly, this house got torn down. https://www.oldhousedreams.com/2013/02/26/1962-contemporary-croton-on-hudson-ny/ Per the comments near the end, "As with many unique houses it cost too much to keep up and my elderly parents let it fall into disarray. We could not fix it up when my mother died in 2012"
This house is really amazing, but this bathroom is a little much: https://www.oldhousedreams.com/2012/03/29/1960-lambertville-nj/ (Last sold in 2015 for $630K: https://www.longandfoster.com/homes-for-sale/315-Goat-Hill-Road-Lambertville-NJ-08530-250220020)
Not that it's the most desirable property to buy in the first place: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3204-Oak-Ridge-Rd-Vicksburg-MS-39183/78102111_zpid/?
I thought you guys would appreciate this one. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/108-110-Lincoln-Way-W-MC-Mc-Connellsburg-PA-17233/2056568278_zpid/
I always liked the band Jellyfish.
I just took a gander over to Wikipedia to learn why they broke up. It was there where I read one of the best break up write ups ever:
"During the tour for Spilt Milk, Sturmer and Manning grew increasingly distant as friends. On their return home, the two songwriters independently wrote material for a third album, provisionally titled Nausea Trois. By then, they were drifting apart musically. Manning remembered that, prior, they would bond over albums such as Paul McCartney's Ram or the Zombies' Odessey and Oracle; however, "it was clear that none of that was happening anymore." He said that he was "rediscovering my love of [...] high-energy, fun melodic pop with attitude. And Andy was Leonard Cohen. That was it." When Sturmer presented him a country ballad song, he accordingly "left in tears because I had zero interest in recording it." Sturmer felt that Manning had outgrown the partnership, and for his part, was fearful that Manning's new songs would likely inspire journalists to persistently compare the band to Alice Cooper."
Really paints a picture!
They were a good band while it lasted.
Also...In 2004 or 2005, Coachella organizers invited Manning to reunite Jellyfish for a one-off performance at the festival. Manning advised the organizers to consult Sturmer first. Sturmer, through his lawyer, responded he would not accept the offer regardless of any amount of money involved.
Woah!!
