[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my neighbor. She fell and nobody knew for 2 days. She was lucky her sister came to visit after she didn't answer her phone. If she had had something on the stove, she could have burned her house down, as well as her neighbors. But at least she has her freedom, so there's that....[/quote] When I was an EMT I responded to a call where an elderly man fell between his toilet and bath tub, could not get out, was found 5 days later dehydrated/barely alive[/quote] Yep . My mom at 88 fell and hit her head outside. She crawled bleeding back inside the house and pushed her life alert button. Ambulance took her to hospital and she got 20 staples and stitches in her head. Life alert button saved her life. Glad she followed my instructions and wore the button 24 hrs a day. [/quote] My mom refuses to wear any life button. [/quote]
