alert!

this is one of those things that makes me wonder about all the info out there...apparently, i really should have a medical alert bracelet, which now that i think of it (or that the message boards i read thought of it) makes total sense. i can't take NSAIDS, i can't have sugar and i now know i definitely can't have a blind NG tube...didn't even know what that was until yesterday. it's a feeding or intubation tube that would ruin my pouch and cause many potential problems.

thanks to lauren's hope, there actually exist pretty medical alert bracelets. this rose gold option is the one i'm considering, although the rose gold tag only comes with a red medical alert symbol. i might go with a silver tag with the rose gold bracelet to mix it up and have a better set of color options. oh, the problems. i rather like this engraved, colorless tag style which i suppose i could order separately and pair with the rose gold bracelet, but i worry that something so subtle might be too...subtle, and emergency personnel might miss it. and then what would be the point in having a bracelet in the first place?


hmm...what to do, what to do.
