I'll let you know what it looks like when it arrives. I did have a medic alert one once but apart from appearing dull the inscription was almost unreadable and it also wore off - very poor quality. This may be better than nothing when I'm out an about as I don't currently have anything on my person. I always carry my insulin passport cards and diabetic medic card in my wallet but they're not immediately apparent. I'm a a bit of a magpie when it comes to shiny things :crazy:
Must admit, the bracelets do look very nice. Wonder how easy it is to remove when having a shower etc and how big the charms actually are. Dont really want anything that might catch in my clothes.
Look forward to reading your msg Riri when you get the bracelet..
Hi I have just had a look at them and they are very pretty,even though I am not a jewelry type of person, they look good, but I have skinny wrists, so maybe the girls size might fit me better :?:

Hobs, I have a very imaginative mind and the thought of one of those braclets on you, well .................. :lol: :lol:
Hia RRB - I'm like you and ive got very small wrists. I made the mistake of not realising that they are all individual lengths. I'd ordered the 23cm by mistake but I've been back in touch and she does very small ones too so I'm choosing another colour now at 19cm.
Hi all, saw in an earlier forum that paramedics will look for id bracelets if person is found unconscious. I wanted one for my daughter and someone mentioned these on ebay. It was £11.99 with free posting. Just enter: JSC INSULIN DIABETIC MEDICAL ALERT CHARM BRACELET. My daughter has a really tiny wrist and I was just able to remove the links not needed. It looks really nice on her and could work on boys/hairy men too as it is made from stainless steel. Just wrote a letter into her school explaining it was not jewelry for the sake of it as it is not allowed in school and they have allowed her to wear it. She can wear it in the pool etc so not get into the habit of taking it off. You can also engrave details if necessary onto it. I know it is not pretty as in a lovely bracelet, but feel a little bit happier knowing she is wearing it.
