“For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was sapped as in the heat of summer.”  - Psalms 32:4.

During a heat-related illness, the body’s temperature can quickly rise above 103 degrees. To prevent overheating make sure the person stays hydrated, wears loose clothing, avoids the hottest time of the day, avoids caffeinated beverages, and uses air conditioning or fans to cool down. If suffering from heat stroke, a person may display the following: confusion, dizziness, fainting, clammy/pale skin, headache, fatigue, dry mouth, weak pulse, lack of perspiration, or nausea. If heat stroke is suspected, move the person to a cool place and seek medical attention immediately to prevent serious complications.
