if she were super-model material would the story have ended differently? :)

If anyone has a condition such as diabetes, insect allergies, food allergies or any other kind of condition that can render you incapable of helping in your own treatment you would be advised to get one of these things with proper info from your Doctor.


Thanks Mav.  Turns out I actually have seen one before, but it was on my 90 y/o+ great grand mother, a decade ago. These newer ones (and the watches) look pretty hard to miss now that I know what I'm looking for in an emergency.

And for some reason this story reminds me of the Adam Sandler movie... 50 first dates or something like that... where at the end, the girl wakes up every morning and watches a DVD of her life since she loses her memory overnight. Freaky stuff. Sounds like the woman Gun helped has a really good guy for a husband.

thanks again, im a bit uncomfortable with the attention since it really was not such a big deal... i was just at the right place at the right time to help. any ofyou who saw the lost look on her face would have asked questions too.  i only wanted to share it because it really impacted me (now i can go back to being the same old crank on this BB :) )

Yes, Indy, her husband seemed like a really good guy, definately the right kind of guy for her.  he was very kind and gentle and patient with her.  

Eagler, i know you're pulling my chain about  "what if the woman looked like a supermodel?"    but a couple of my associates that i have told about this have asked me right off the bat, "Was she good looking?"  I just tell them,  "what the hell do you want to know that for, you pervert?"   ;)
