Things I Fear: Twenty-Eighth

[mancalledtrue]

Almost there.

#28: THIRST

I was hiking in South Dakota once, in 105-degree weather, due to very bad planning on everyone's part.  I lost one of my water bottles, and had no headgear.

I suffered full-on heatstroke.  It's the closest I have ever come to dying.

Ever since, I've had trouble letting myself get thirsty.  Hot environments bother me, and I always try to keep water on hand.
