Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Hey All, I want to share a new discovery with you. I've been having problems making sure I remember to take all my medications, take my bloodsugar tests, etc. So, I went looking for, mainly, a remberance tool. And I found exactly what I was looking for and I think anyone in our situations (chronic illness, diabetes, etc. affecting memory) might find it of assistance too. It's a watch that can also be worn pager style. It came be used solely as a reminder system, a training tool or bothIt's called WatchMinder. It has sixteen different alarms. The watch vibrates it's alarm. With each alarm, you can choose one of many different text reminders or training messages to go with it (i.e. Reminders: GO DR, MEDS 1, TEST, DO CHORES, etc or Training: GO BATHROOM, PAY ATTN, POSTURE, RELATE, etc..). It was created by a psychologist for ADD/ADHD Children and Adult, Diabetics, etc. but can be used for other issues too. According to it, it can be used by:people who have or need: ADD/ADHD, Deaf and Hard of hearing, Elderly, Chronic illness, Medication Compliance, Behavior Modification and Self-Monitoring, Independence Training and Vocational Rehabilitation, Brain injury and Stroke, and Research, Data Collection and Clinical Trial Studies. So far, I have found it to be of immense help. You can check it out at http://www.watchminder.com . However, if you do decide to purchase it, do a search on the internet first because the price list at Watchminder.com is$99.95 and I found several different places that sell it for $69.95, which is what I paid for it. So far, it has helped me a great deal. Kimber -- Kimber Vallejo, CA hominid2@... Note: All advice given is personal opinion, not equal to that of a licensed physician or health care professional.
