I keep forgetting to say...

We've made a significant change to our lives in the last 24 hours. I now have a LifeAlert pendant that I wear all the time. It makes Bear and I both feel safer, though I now feel like an old bird! You know that commercial that used to play..."I've fallen and I can't get up!" Well, it's not so funny now

They are a good idea. We had that for my mum when she was alone.

It could save your life! It's a great thing to have. I only wish we'd had one for Grandpa... he laid on the cold floor for three days before anyone found him. =( He lived but was in the hospital for a long time afterwards. *Scary*

That's so sad! I hope I never need it but it is good to have it in case I *do*

We tried to convince my mom to get one of those, but she's "too young for that sort of thing." Maybe she'll reconsider now that she's had the hip replacement?...

Money well spent, indeed!

How old is she? Tell her I'm 52 and I'm thankful to have it. I hope I never need it but it is good to have it in case I *do*

67. She won't do anything unless it's on her own terms, though, even if it's clear to everyone else that her judgment isn't the best...

[artykat]

That's sad. I'm sorry she is like that!

thanks! I hope I never need it but it is good to have it in case I *do*
