[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 373601, member: 1991"] Years ago (as in 30 years) we bought a medic alert medallion for me. It's called SOS medallion and it's a flat circular capsule, waterproof and tough, which can unscrew to reveal a strip of paper on which we have put all my allergies, contact details etc. We actually have the text file on the computer in very tiny font, we print out a new one when the info changes. It has - contact details; diagnosis; allergy list; doctor and specialist contact info; medical/surgical history; hospital file numbers and other important medication numbers. Blood group. Another option for a young child - we had a brightly coloured elastic band fastened with velcro, which had a laundry label stitched to it. You could make one easily. On the laundry label, we wrote difficult child 3's name, diagnosis and out mobile phone numbers. Then we made him wear this on his wrist every time we were away from home or on holidays. We also put a school book label on his shirt (on his back as well as his front) with his diagnosis and our phone number. If he peeled it off his chest, there was still the one on his back as well as his wrist. It all helped. If you want the contact details for the SOS, let me know. Marg [/QUOTE]
