Like the others, sitting in 87 degree weather would have done me in as well. In fact, I would have only made it 5 minutes max before I became a neurological mess - blurred vision, slurred speech and being unable to get sentences out correctly, trouble walking - balance, stiff legs, spasticity, etc. And then to get in a car and drive 2 hours would only add to the mess.

Also, like others mentioned, how did you feel after you cooled down and rested?

I hope you are doing better.

I sat at a football game in the heat before I knew I had to take precautions and quite literally could not have walked back to my car by myself. DH was there and was able to get me to the car. My legs just had zero strength and I was physically unable to walk up the hill. That was seriously scary.
