Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Yes, I wear one. Only took it off for my recent arm surgery. Otherwise, it's been on ever since the DS.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 I think any pharmacy would have medic alert braceletes. you fill out the form or call some number after you buy the bracelet, i think. Dont quote me on that but I think thats how it works.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I suppose an even worse case scenario would be if one had been KO'd and robbed and one's wallet, purse (pocket-book, you'd say?) or whatever, with all your ID etc., was gone. - along with your mobile (cell), with your next-of-kin's phone number in it !! A good reason to choose a non-precious-metal medical ID bracelet or pendant, perhaps, in hopes that any assailant wouldn't bother to tear it off you. Or am I being unnecessarily negative/macabre ?(Wouldn't be the first time .) Leonie.

This is in addition to membership in MedicAlert which also has that information in its data bank.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yes, I suppose that could happen. If it does, I'd ask the universe what does it all mean.From: leonie marshall <stropulosis@...>Subject: Re: medicalert bracelet Date: Monday, August 10, 2009, 3:30 AM I suppose an even worse case scenario would be if one had been KO'd and robbed and one's wallet, purse (pocket-book, you'd say?) or whatever, with all your ID etc., was gone. - along with your mobile (cell), with your next-of-kin' s phone number in it !!
