[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The same thing could happen to you or your DH while you’re home alone with the kids. One thing that is good to know generally is whether your locality has text-to-911 enabled and how to do it. If you have an emergency by yourself where you cannot speak, knowing how to text to 911 can be invaluable. If I ever started truly choking while home alone, that is the first thing I would do, before even trying to heimlich myself, to get ambulance moving asap. If I’ve managed to dislodge whatever I’m choking on before they arrive, so be it. [/quote] One other tip, it is easy to create your own text replacements on an iPhone. I have one programmed into my phone so if I type 911choke it auto corrects to “[my home address]. Ambulance. Choking.” In an emergency I can open my texts, type 911 in the recipient line, type that phrase in the message field and hit send. [/quote]
