Emergency Information - Great Idea!

In the November/December 2011 issue of the RV gazette magazine was this letter on page 7 written by Ruth:
"Emergency Information:
I am an older person and unfortunately have some health issues, which cause my family to worry.  My daughter insisted that I put a USB flashdrive on my key ring that contains my information including:
  • my name, age, address, and telephone number
  • a list of my current medications and allergies to other medications
  • a list of my current medical diagnoses
  • my current insurance information as well as the information for my two doctors
On the outside of the flash drive, it reads "Emergency Information" in bold letters


A few months ago I had a heart attack and was not able to communicate whatsoever.  Thank goodness that my wise daughter had made me that flash drive!  It saved my life.  The 2.0 flash drive costs only a few dollars and it took her only a few minutes to create and install on my key ring.  Now I take it with me everywhere.


Signed:  Ruth ..."

Lucy and I now carry on our key chains a flash drive with the following files contained:
Text File:  Emergency Information - Frank & Lucy Spence
PDF:   Emergency Information - Frank & Lucy Spence
We decided that each flash drive should contain both his and her information.
