I dialed 911 once when I'd fallen.....That was a big mistake..Once the Fire Dept. got there I lost all control over my life...Never again.....As far as the scooter goes, the only ones who loses from my having it, is my heirs and they have already lost what it cost...

Westy, then you would appreciate one of these medical alert systems. Actually, they are little more than a glorified answering service, but they do keep your medical history and contacts. You just wear this wireless thingee on your wrist at all times.

If you fall and cannot get up, you just punch the activation button. They will immediately call back and ask you if you need assistance. Then, you make the decision as to whether YOU want them to call your neighbor, daughter or whoever...or if you want an ambulance. O course, if they do not receive an answer from you if you become unconscious, they will call your designated ambulance or hospital.
