Death To Zombies

So, let’s say you’re a really fit person.  You go hiking all the time and would never pass up a chance to go mountain biking with the buddys.  Unfortunately you have a peanut butter allergy and your buddy only packed in food w/ peanuts and doesn’t tell you.   Or honey bees can kill you and you just got stung!  What to do?!?  Well, if you spent $25 on this handy epipen carry case that straps to your calf then you may just need a jab in the thigh and a visit to the emergency room.

In fact, the company that produces these epipen holders(OmaxCare) has all sorts of handy carrying cases.  Need a carry case for your asthma inhaler and want it on your bicep…DONE.  Need nitro pills and want to carry them on your ankle…DONE.  You can buy them online at their website.  That said, this is not an advertisement.  I’m not getting money from OmaxCare and don’t have personal experience with their customer service.  If you have opinions on that sort of thing please comment!

When I was in the Army we had a field manual that instructed us on how to create an emergency airway.  I hesitate to call it a tracheotomy because I’m not a doctor and am not sure if the emergency procedure rates such a grand term.  But the bottom line is, I know how to punch a hole in someone’s throat if they can’t breath.  That said, I’d have to be really sure of the person dying and no ambulance being close by or I wouldn’t attempt the procedure.

But I believe in being prepared, so I can see how I would like to have a kit that has sterile tools to make this sort of procedure easier.  And that’s just what you get when you spend $145 on the LifeState Emergency Pocket Airway.  It hangs on your keychain and just waits for the day when you need it.  It’s not cheap, so I may not buy one right away, but it’s on the to buy list.
