thank goodness indeed.
Another worry for you though.
A friend of mine did not have an alarm and lay outside in the freezing cold for 3 hours. She had 2 hip replacements last Sunday and is being sent home today.
She is getting an alarm now but she would not have had it with her outside in the drive. So she needs to carry her mobile phone with her when she goes out in the car, which wont be for some time.
She is 87

Sorry to say that Mum is back in hospital.
She collapsed this afternoon (Sat), thankfully I was with her .
Called 999 and the ambulance arrived very quickly, she was having breathing difficulties and her oxygen level
was very low.
She was taken straight to resus where they stabilised her. She is seeing a consultant Sun.
Ist class care by ambulance and all hospital staff.
Many thanks to everyone for your kindness and replies.
