Has the thought ever crossed your mind that there could be an emergency at any given moment and you may not be prepared with the proper information? The reality is that in an emergency situation, we certainly aren't thinking of what information we should have handy. However, a little preparation in advance could change all that.
Although I hadn't thought about it much before, there was a medical emergency involving my Dad recently that spurred these thoughts. Suddenly we had to have a list of all his meds - thankfully we were at their home still so it was easy to compile but what if we weren't? I certainly wouldn't have known all the medications he has to take and quite honestly, I am not sure my Mom could recall every last one off the top of her head.
Do you have a list of all the medications you or your family members {children} may he taking? While I know what medications we take, they are not written down anywhere. This thought led me to think of all the other information that could be needed in an emergency situation and of course… led me to start preparing such info to save in a document in my Dropbox. Dropbox allows you to easily access documents from wherever, whenever - even from your phone.
What if your wallet was stolen... would you have all your credit card information handy?
