Then, let them know what restrictions you might have and that you don't want it to be a big deal or interfere with your fun. :) <br /><br />Btw, you may want to look into a cooling vest. I know it sounds SO horrible, but they are really useful if you are in a place where you can get overheated. The heat affects me terribly and I lived in Florida. I got over my vanity and wore it when I had to and it made me much more comfortable. People were actually jealous of it because they were all sweating and I was cool, literally :)<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />Michelle <br />tastytreatsbymichi.weebly.comMichiBolookihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09694774872065916721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889770606071560003.post-68989728347745390892010-07-26T17:21:58.341-06:002010-07-26T17:21:58.341-06:00Thanks for finding my blog!

We shouldn't be ashamed to share about our illness. I struggled with this in year 1 but in year 2 I have a whole new attitude about it!
