[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1897872, member: 209498"] Welcome to the forum [USER=492386]@Brooke96[/USER] and my condolences for the loss of your father. I'm Type 2 so I don't get DKAs, but I live alone, and I'm 67 so I'm aware that I need to be able to contact help if anything should happen to me. If your mother can use a mobile phone you should be able to set up an emergency contact to your mobile (assuming you both have one), where she only needs to press one number to phone you (or anyone else). It would mean that she needs to keep her phone within reach, which I don't usually. [/QUOTE]
