Joy, when looking at medic alerts be careful about the bracelet part of it. In the past I have ruined many a knit item because the chain on the bracelet got hung up in the knit.
I found the necklace to be more wearer friendly especially when wearing modest tops as it can be tucked out of sight. Unfortunately I lost mine when coming home from Dublin going through security. I haven't replaced it yet as the agency has changed how things work up here and the prices are prohibitive. Need to do that, thanks for the reminder.
Also, when you get one engraved make sure you put insulin dependent diabetic. At our age they sometimes quickly lump you in with those being controlled solely by diet.
Hope things are going well for you and the educators are being very helpful.
