On Sunday at Bramley Market a lady asked me if we had any “message in a bottles”, unfortunately we did not. She went on to tell me that she had collected two from us at the Bramley Carnival earlier in the year. She kept one and gave one to her friend.
Unfortunately both these ladies had been taken ill, one quite seriously, in the intervening period and both had been rushed to hospital (one unconscious). But as they both had MIAB‟s the paramedics were able to get all the information they needed in order to ensure that both these ladies were able to be treated quickly and efficiently.
As a new club, we have not given out many MIAB‟s yet, but this story certainly proves their worth.
I will drop off the extra bottles that she asked for later today, and at the next meeting I will be proposing that we use some of the sleigh money to buy a stock of MIAB‟s so that we may be able to help others.
