With our health being what it is at this house, we decided it was time to get a Defibrillator in case of an emergency.
—Defibrillators are devices that restore a normal heartbeat by sending an electric pulse or shock to the heart. They are used to prevent or correct an arrhythmia, a heartbeat that is uneven or that is too slow or too fast. Defibrillators can also restore the heart’s beating if the heart suddenly stops.
—That is copied straight from the “National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.

I researched other Defibrillators, and I felt the “Philips HeartStart” was best for us.
In case of an emergency, we open it up and begin following the voice prompts.
The unit should walk us through every step.
It will even tell you if an electric shock is Not Needed.
It comes with scissors, should we need to cut the clothing off, a razor, in case we need to shave hair, gloves, a CPR Mask, and a few other items.
My Philips Sales Woman was very easy to deal with, and it got delivered within three days after placing the order.
I Pray to God that we never need it, but I’d rather have it and not need it than not to have it at all.
My next step is finding a central location to store it.
That’s all for now.
Love you,
–Lynn
