I was just cleaning out my junk drawer and found my mouth shield in there🤦🏼‍♀️ A lotta good that would do me if I ever needed it and not only didn’t have it, but had no idea where it was.

But really in all my years of being certified & re-certified, I’ve NEVER encountered anyone in need of rescue.

If we all carried around everything we could possibly need at every given moment for any possible unforeseen need, we’d all be hauling 20 ft long trailers 😆

I’m a minimalist and everywhere I go I bring as little as possible. Sometimes I bring nothing at all with me places I go. I really prefer to travel lightly.

      Are “cpr-certified” people trained to look for and respect medical bracelets? And will they remember that part of their training, if so? One of my worse fears is being manhandled by one of these people

      Yeah they know better than most, that CPR rarely ends well. Better to let nature take its course and head off to heaven, than fight against it & suffer & have broken sternum & punctured heart & even a worse death .
