I'd be super annoyed.
But if she literally can't get up fir water, she shld be in the hospital. So she probably really can 🙈

How is she without water? Tap water in Israel is drinkable btw unless she’s sensitive to it or the pipes are old. Does she have money or a makolet near by? Family that can bring medicine? I wish I could help.
There are also places like green berry that can do food delivery to your Dd, I would do that. You can google them.

No water? I mean, she can take a cup and fill it with tap water. I mean that with all seriousness. But also, if she is in her dorm, is nobody with her? Have her call her aim bayit to see how they can help.

As others have said she should call the Eim Bayit. And if she's too sick to call you should call.

She should be in touch with the eim bayit

She really can't walk to get some food? That is concerning

Would she feel better if before they go on a trip they leave her with medicine, three water bottles, some crackers and fruit?

Yes if she had water and d some food next to her bed it would be good. She needs a thermometer also which I forgot to send her with.

She is 18 years old, she can get a phone and order a mishloach of food to her dorm. It’s pretty common for the seminaries to not take care of meals during sukkos or pesach.

IF she is so sick that she can not get out of bed and go to the sink for a drink of water, she should not be in bed, she should run to the ER. And she has nothing in the fridge or cabinets?
Is there noody else staying in the dorm over sukot? Why has she not contacted her eim bayit????

I'm all for independence and that an 18 year old can figure out food and drink.

However, if I spent $25,000 to send my kid overseas, and she was sick in the dorm, I would expect some basic assistance to be sorted out by the school.

You still haven’t answered about the aim bayit. This is what she is there for.
Please bother her!

100%. Many of us have asked why this girl has not spoken to her eim bayit. That is the most logical thing to do.

Why do people need to bring your daughter food and water? If she is so sick she should go to terem or be in the ER.

How do we expect post seminary girls to start shidduchim and get married if we also expect people to be at their beck and call when sick?

Most schools make it pretty clear that the girls are on their own for yom tov, except for the 1-2 trips or teacher parties that arrange . Not saying it’s right considering how much tuition is paid, just saying that it’s possible the aim bayit is not “on duty” over chol hamoed.
