Our previous next door neighbor was 94 and still living alone.
There was an incident where she had fallen and was not found for almost 3 days. We felt terrible about it, since I know that our bedroom is <60' from where she must have been laying.

She recouped in rehab and came back for another year, but it could have had a different outcome.

Like with Tom's Mom, if she won't wear it around her neck or pinned to her garment 24/7, it probably will not "come in handy."

BTW, "I've fallen and I can't get up" is trademarked, Mark, so watch it, OK?

Ha! I think it would have been awesone if it had been stolen by Levitra or Cialis!


Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
