Dear Queenie,
My mother is getting older and she lives alone and I can’t always be there for her, so I made an emergency kit for her with prescriptions, doctors’ names, insurance cards, emergency phone numbers, her will, power of attorney, and $100 in cash in an envelope. I put one copy in the trunk of her car and one by her front door.
When she had a bad fall and had to be taken to the hospital, the people who rescued her told me the kit was a huge help in caring for her.
Queenie, don’t you think your other readers would benefit from this idea?—Faithful reader
Dear Faithful reader,
Indeed I do. Thank you for the thought. Readers, take careful note!
