Kimberly Mitchell
Toronto, ON
Thirteen years ago, Kim found herself in a hospital ER gasping for air. Little did she know at the time she was allergic to the sulfa drugs prescribed to her for a routine condition. The first thing she did after leaving hospital was become a MedicAlert® member.
“Now I throw my wrist in the air and shake it to show I wear a MedicAlert bracelet,” says the 39 year-old camp employee. “It’s my cry for help.”
Kim knows that an allergic reaction can literally leave her gasping for air, so she is never without her bracelet.
“One of the first things I do is make sure people see it. For the minuscule amount of money it costs, I thank MedicAlert every day. It’s worth it.”
Kim knows that when she can’t catch her breath, MedicAlert speaks volumes for her.
