Re: [QUAD-L] Ask My Buddy, Personal Alert Network Help Page

OMG! I JUST had my niece set this up for me except it was not called "Ask
My Buddy." I had to set up "recipes" as they are called to have me call a
family member to call my niece to first contact my caregiver and if she is
unresponsive to then tell Alexa to message the fire department which will
come when the ambulance.

I am surprised they have 2 different ways to do this/accomplish this by
using Amazon Echo. I think it was you who gave all of us the original way
to do it which is what I did the week of May 9.

the 24 inch rear wheels for user mobility. Its blue and has a rigid plastic 
back approx. 18 inches high. Im a tall guy 6'2 so I really need a long seat, 
but the 17 inches might have to do. The price is running about 495.00 plus 
95.00 for the 24 inch rear wheels from Medical products Unlimited. The chair I 
have used for 15 years was a stainless steel Guardian with a custom seat  that 
was 18 inches wide by 20 inches deep. I was lucky to get that custom seat at 
the time. Does anyone have any shower chair suggestions or anything to add? I 
might call my case manager and see if she can call a place called adaptability 
and let me roll in there and see what old ones they could cobble up for me. It 
sucks when your shower chair springs a leak, lol.
