I feel so bad for my mom, as she gets older, she battles more plus more health complications! She developed thyroid complications recently on top of dealing with diabetes.
As if that cannot get any worse, she has going through menopause plus experiences so various hard symptoms from it; The worst symptom for her is the recurring overheated flashes.
She told me that she can manage everything else, but the overheated flashes are totally out of her control. At any random moment, my mother can go from comfortable to dripping with sweat from a overheated flash. She has even felt this in the middle of winter while sitting outside in a blizzard. My dad is trying so strenuous to find ways to help her, however he started off by purchasing a few fans for around the home plus a small fan for her work desk. Those did not entirely do much. Then he installed small window cooling units, but these weren’t particularly effective. Finally, he decided to look into updating the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C system entirely. He chose zone heating because this would allow him to set individual rooms to unique temperatures. This meant that my mom could keep one room cool at all times plus this would be her safe haven. I thought my dad was absurd to go to such serious measures at first, but I swiftly realized that this gave my mom what she needed. I am so thankful that my dad has found a way to bring her comfort, even if it required a hefty investment. She deserves to be comfortable during these strenuous times in her life!
