Extra help during illness

[ Edited ]

 

I purchased this small wireless doorbell for less than $10 to use while I was 'down' after surgery.  

 

It is portable and the tune it plays is loud enough (but not obnoxious) to alert anyone in the house (or in another room or upstairs) that you need assistance.

 

I also put one in my kitchen and the tune in the laundry room.  You can hear it outside.  It will stay!

 

Two could be used for people in either end of the house or just separate rooms or floors of a large home.

 

I did need to use it a couple of times but the peace of mind that I could call someone was well worth the price!

How have you been Zhills?

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

@Bird mama  I am doing great just recouperating more slowly than I would like.  I do feel good and that helps.  Sometimes I over do it and have to take a day "off".  The Doc still wants me to have a PETscan when my scar is completely healed.....just to be sure!
