Her family decided to start making preparations. When her body was being delivered back in an ambulance, they hit a pothole that jolted her brain back into action. Genuinely crazy medical story, but with 8,000,000,000 people on earth, this happening to at least one person is all but guaranteed.
For me, having a large water bottle within arms reach at all times is what helped me start staying hydrated. I used to use gallons of water from the store and refill them until I felt it was time for a new one, but now I have a nice 64oz water bottle. Importantly for me, I don’t like sucking on a straw to drink water. It’s too much work and too slow. I like my water just cooler than room temperature. Having that in arms reach at all times means every time I started feeling hungry, I could drink water because I was actually thirsty and it felt the same to me.
