Hot Flashes

This meant that my Dad could keep one room cool at all times as well as this would be her safe haven

I feel so terrible for my mom, and as she gets older, she battles more as well as more health troubles… She developed thyroid troubles recently on top of dealing with diabetes. As if that can’t get any worse, she’s going through menopause as well as experiences so many hard symptoms from it, but the worst symptom for her is the recurring sizzling flashes. She told me that she can manage everything else, however the sizzling flashes are totally out of her control. At any random moment, my mother can go from comfortable to dripping with sweat from a sizzling flash. She has even felt this in the middle of winter season while standing outside in a blizzard. My dad is trying so hard to find ways to help her. She started off by purchasing a few fans for around the home as well as a small fan for her labor desk. Those didn’t entirely do much. Then she installed small window cooling units, however these were not easily effective. Finally, she decided to look into updating the Heating, Ventilation & A/C system entirely. She chose zone heating because this would allow him to set individual rooms to unique temperatures. This meant that my Dad could keep one room cool at all times as well as this would be her safe haven. I thought my dad was crazy to go to such drastic measures at first, but I quickly realized that this gave my Dad 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 hard times in her life!
