I got the Jitterbug smartphone with the 5* app but unless I have the phone with me it does me no good.  I've thought about the Life Alert thing because it's on a chain around your neck. The 5* app is great because you can use it for any situation....not necessarily emergencies.....say you're out somewhere and you need directions or you just feel anxious and want someone to reassure you.....you can just touch the app and someone is right with you. And they have a GPS to your location so if you need help they can get it right to you even if you aren't familiar with your location. I think after this last episode I might be looking into the Life Alert option.

Aww, poor sweetie...so sorry to hear of this crisis. I'm so glad your DS persevered and came over.
Maybe you need to wear a fanny pack or something to ensure you have your phone with you...the Life Alert necklace or whatever it is would help you as well, but how much does that cost? Hope the IVSM works quickly. Thanks for sharing this...a good reminder for all of us to keep a phone nearby no matter where we are. Stay safe and well

I'm getting IVSM here at home and it's wonderful. I love steroids.
 The difference is night and day. I could barely walk Monday and after just one day of IVSM I'm back to "'my normal".....which is no where close to normal but it's mine so that's good. I was reading the grocery store thread but had to stop because it was making me hungry!

Yes, the grocery store thread does tend to make you hungry and I'm sure the steroids aren't helping. I thought everything tasted like lobster after RW posted about the lobster prices where she lives.
