Re: Chiari awareness bracelets?

[Guest guest]

I'll post this to the group in case anyone else is interested.

Someone has posted here before that EMTs might not go directly to

your purse in case of an accident/injury...your purse might get

tossed thru the window in the case of a rollover accident. So, I

don't believe having a card in the wallet is the best way to go.

This link leads to one option. It is not a true Medic Alert bracelet,

those are the types that a doctor can call a phone number and have

all of your records on file, due to the MA bracelet.

But this one has a compartment for a card...

I believe EMTs will more likely check your body for bracelets and

necklaces for medical information. This one is only $10...cheap

enough I ordered one for my Mom

I have 3 men's size purple Chiari bracelets I will send free to the

first 3 people who email me. Just email me privately with your

mailing addy.
