Hi Everybody!
((((HUGS))))
Oh, my goodness! I’m so glad she had that and that they were on the ball. My MIL has one, too, and once it worked only too well.
They did a well-being call to her one Sunday afternoon, and when they couldn’t rouse her, they called the fire dept and police and they came over and broke into the house and thoroughly scoured the neighborhood, scaring all her friends who live around her.
They called us nearly immediately...and of course, being 7 1/2 hours away, we told them to do whatever they needed.
We called our son to see if he’d go over there.
Weeeeelllllll....she was WITH THEM!! Having lunch and a good ol’ time! She had left the medical alert on her car seat when she got home from church and just walked out and got in our son’s car and off they went.
We were so relieved and SO FURIOUS! We sort of had to chastise her and tell her to NEVER take the thing off when she was near or in her house. LOL!
I’m so glad your mom was ok, even though was on the floor and probably so sore and scared. I hope she’ll be more careful, but, as I well know...we can’t be sure of those sweet old ladies!

Hi LUV!
Hi LUV!
Howdy!! You got me there. I posted and went somewhere else!
Teach me!
WOOOOHOOOOO!!!
Aw, shucks! But glad you are working! :)
"ya snooze, ya lose" :-)
Exactly!! :)
When I was a kid in the 50s and 60s the Navy had a recruitment office in the local Post Office building in DeFuniak Springs.
There would always be a rack holding free literature. The only one I wanted was Navy comic books. They were really good and also were good history.
One comic told the story of 3 U.S. Navy ships capturing a ship carrying rum. All three ships helped themselves and before long all their crews were drunk.
During this time they spotted a small British warship and attacked. The little British ship whipped all 3 American ships. From that time until I think fairly recently, alcohol was banned from U.S. warships.
God Bless you good, Mac. *HUGS* Good night and rest well.
Thanks for helping honor our troops, past and present.
Thank you for your service to our country.
Pro.....#50!!
Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...hope your Monday was Marvelous.
