The sucky part is, the one that became a vegatable after it happened, spent his 21st birthday and many since in a nursing home.

Oh I know man. I was very lucky to catch myself twice. I work lawn care now, and I always break the yards up into about 8 sections. I always drink about half a bottle of water after each section, and then about every 3 sections I run water over my arms and head to cool off. Now I'm kinda paranoid about getting it, so when I start to get some of the lesser symptoms, I start to feel strange, and I immediately go get water. Haven't a problem since. It's always a worry of mine though.
