• Emergency: an unexpected and sudden event that must be dealt with urgently; a short-term, possibly life-threatening situation.
• Disaster: an event that causes serious loss, destruction, hardship, unhappiness, or death.
• Survival: the act of remaining alive or in existence, especially after facing life-threatening danger, or of continuing in a present position; day-to-day living over an extended period of time.
