The story you are thinking of is called "The Raft", and is included in the short story collection, "Skeleton Crew" First Published in 1982, in "Gallery" magazine.

The Complete and Uncut The Stand" is much better, than the orginal book, in my opinion.

King came out with it because when he first published "The Stand" they made him cut out so much.........when he was more established, he was able to re-insert the missing pages, and publish it the way he orignially intended.

Watching the mini series and reading the books are not comparable

Reading the books lets you know somuch more about what the characters are thinking, and why they do what they do.
