HEAT warning

As most of you know, LOTS of states are going through a heatwave and I just wanted to give you a few tips as I have been overheated several times and know the effects of the heat.

* Drink LOTS of fluids. If kiddos do not like plain water try crystal light drinks or low sugar juices.

* Wear loose clothing

* In the event of being overheated, go somewhere indoors and place a fan on you. Also a cold towel on the neck is helpful. Drink liquids slowly and just relax being seated!

* LIMIT sodas and load up on water.

* Know you limits!!!

Beat the heat and stay safe!!!

Thank you for the kind comment. So how did they find out your heart was enlarged? Are you on any meds for it? Ok I think I'm done asking questions. Have a nice evening.
