more to learn about

well when we was at dollywood on saturday it was so hot everyone was sweating, well not markus but his skin was hot enough to burn you . we noticed that he was sweating so we had to cool him off. when we was home on sunday he did nothing but sleep and cool off.. he stayed hot til Sunday night, i thought he was getting sick again. but it was still where he had gotten so hot on Saturday.. apparently unlike aleks who has adjusted and started to sweat in our climate ..markus with his ACC may never figure out to sweat to cool down...his brain may not regulate his tempeture...this explains last year every time he got in the sand box his fever would spike at over 104....

Some of the other Estonia moms have noticed that with their kids, too. It may be more than the ACC. Maybe their bodies just never had to deal with heat before? Andreas sweats, but it takes alot of heat. He gets cold very fast.

aleks sweats as well. but poor little markus tonight in the pool , he got so cold he almost stopped breathing . we hope it is just going to take time but if not at least we know that it is the ACC

O gets very cold in the pool too. He has turned blue before. I wanted to tell you about cooling vests. I have a friend who uses them for kids and goes to six flags. They are wonderful! They sell for $100 online, but she made hers.
