Dear Gary,
Please forgive me for not sending this sooner. Thank you so much for sending it. I cannot hear well on it as I had predicted but feel my main use will be only to contact 911 or my son Tim in case of an emergency and I will be able to give a location and tell what my emergency is. It is also give me a more secure feeling when I walk my Hearing Dog alone in the park. I have collected 2 phones for you and my son will be visiting from up north on Sunday and will bring any he has. I will either send or drop these off after his visit. Once again many thanks for your prompness in sending an emergency phone to me.-Ruth
