Yes, we must drink fluids - preferably water and remember to do so every couple hours throughout the day. Here is my water right beside me - I'll take a sip and you drink some, too. My cardiologist says "don't get dehydrated" - good for Hugh to remember,too. It's hot there and you really have to replace fluids. So sad that it wasn't actually a spa day!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984171407726520584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450572385521130262.post-37625357452445762802013-01-14T12:18:51.955+13:002013-01-14T12:18:51.955+13:00What a great story teller you are!

Hey, that 'resort' sounded to be very thorough with excellent staff! <br />We were just reading yesterday about how important it is to drink at least a few glasses of water every day and most importantly, a glass before you go to bed!! Don't worry about having to get up in the middle of the night....it is very important to be hydrated before we go to bed.<br />So happy you are fine Jean.
