[QUOTE="totoro, post: 267699, member: 3155"] We have let all of K's teachers and the nurse know about this and they push the liquids with her all of the times. We live in one of the hottest places in the country. But even though she still becomes dehydrated. It happens so easy now, her psychiatrist thinks her medications make it easier now with the heat factor. This is the reason her psychiatrist is holding off on putting K on Lithium, despite the fact that it increase thirst. K has to be able to drink and hydrate on her own first and be able to tell when she is becoming dehydrated. The nurse is teaching her as are we. I think this is very important even if you live in places that don't get very hot. [/QUOTE]
