When you think of medical alarms, what is the first thing you think of? The elderly? That is what I used to think as well. Recently my views have changed on this. I think personal medical alarms could benefit a lot of people.
Sometimes the J-Man ends up working by himself. I worry the entire time he is away that something will happen and no one will be there to help. Or when I am home alone with the children, what if something happened? Some sort of freak accident.
Yes, I have a vivid imagination and I tend to stress alot. What if that baby snake I found in the bathroom was not a baby and I was stuck on the toilet and the sucker bit me? What then? Would I die alone on a toilet like Elvis?
I think that having a medical alert system could benefit a lot of people…not just the elderly. Anyone could have a medical emergency at anytime. The time Emma had the seizure, what if the power had been out and I couldn’t call 911…yes I have a cell phone, but what if the battery had been drained?
These things can happen, it isn’t all that far fetched. I have seen some freaky things on 1,000 ways to die. If they had an emergency medical alarm they may have survived their freak accidents!

I am a worry wart and seeing as both my husband and my daughter have severe food allergies I have wondered about this. I know allergy isn’t something you would normally use this for but like I said I worry lol, sometimes to the extreme :X

Hey I know an RN (who I used to work with) who once pulled into a auto repair garage to see when they could rotate her tires. Guess what she found, the mechanic in one of the stalls, all by himself, passed out and one of his wrists bleeding all over the place. She called 911 and wrapped up his wrist with some paper towels she found close by and held pressure over it. He survived. He had lost alot of blood though. Seems he was working by himself and the jack he had jacked a car up with slipped on some oil and the car came down and the bumper somehow cut open his wrist. He passed out when he saw the blood. He was just lucky that she came along.
I can totally understand where you are coming from. And if you had such an alert it would be good to tell the kids that if they ever found mommy or daddy non-responsive to push the button. I do not have any idea what something like that would cost tho?
Like I am allergic to many things, and insects seem to get worse every year… what if I was alone & my epi-pen wasn’t enough & I couldn’t talk because of my throat swelling up? lots of reasons to think of it helping…
