Story
My wife sharon is 39 years old, started having epileptic seizures just a few months ago. Clinic- tonic seizures. (Grand-mal). During these seizures she stops breathing and her heart rate rises so high the hospital often have to shock it to get it back into rhythm (tachycardia). Sharon has lost all ability to be independent, she doesn't go out herself, she is constantly on edge as well as me. With this watch it monitors any epileptic activity and sends a text message to chosen caregivers. It also has a tracker so I know exactly where she is while this is happening, it will give a lot peace of mind. More people die of sudden unexplained death in epilepsy than in house fires every year. Everybody with epilepsy should have a device that alerts people in there area so they can provide assistance when needed. Every little helps
