[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 355343, member: 8110"] [b]Re: Pretty medi alert bracelets. .do emergency service staff[/b] I don't think they look for alert bracelets. They certainly don't search wallets for cards. Some years ago t1 husband had a hypo fit in the street, when out with our 4 year-old. She was able to tell a local shop manager that Daddy needed sugar. They gave her sweeties instead and called the ambulance. She also gave our phone number and I spoke to the shop, which sent the ambulance down past our house and picked me up too. I took sugar cubes and gave them to T1, who was recovering rapidly. At the hospital, they kept him in, because he had had a seizure and his bg was not hypo, so it was a mystery to them. His alert necklace was on the bedside table beside him andthe ambulance folks hadn't told them about the sugar. No-one had added up the evidence. Not ambulance, nor shop manager[a qualiied first-Aider] not hospital A&E personnel! Still despite them he got better. Daughter is now just coming up to 34 and I bet they are no more on the ball nowadays. Hana [/QUOTE]
