Don't y'all have the little pendant gadget that hangs around a senior's neck. It has a button that when pressed, will alert help through the phone.
Mom had one when she was living here 10 years ago.



Didn't work' did it?


Perhaps Donnie was supposed to be at the other end of the phone. I hope his mom passed the button on
to him.



Tell L'il Justine that the pendant worked just fine...sometimes too well. The company had a preferred list of people to call if it got a distress signal from the sending unit.
BTW..the pendant wasn't her property to pass on. It was rented from the company and retired phone company employees (Pioneers?) installed the equipment and retrieved it when the elder person didn't need it anymore. (when they go into a nursing home etc)
