This is a topic which means a lot to me. As you can see from my avatar, I am very interested in autism related subjects, especially support for adults who are affected by autism in some way. |

Thanks Liz as you say "If Only" it has more meaning than anything else in the world. and yes my poor SIL she only had her brother and husband no family of her own and we are so far away. Just a big warning that these Alarms can't help if you are knocked out . Thanks again :-) |

Beggars belief, doesn't it Nolls? If only the friends had tried sooner to get in touch, if only the people in the office had had the sense to go and knock themselves etc etc It's so sad that your poor brother had to end his days in such a way, |

Last August my SIL in US had to come to Scotland for the funeral of her brother leaving my brother behind , she did ask his friends to keep an eye on him, well when on the third day running he had not been down to the pub for his lunch they got worried and went to his apt. At the office there they asked if they could get in to knock n his door told "No not Company Policy"....OK ...So you go and knock .... "Sorry Not Company Policy" they had to leave very worried the next day went to police who broke the door down and found my poor brother in a coma he had fallen and hit his head , he had an emergency tag thingy but of course he never got to use it . He died 10 days later. His wife came back the day he was taken into hosp , when she eventually managed to get into the apt the staff had phoned up (knowing she was away) and left a message saying "Mrs. G. friends have been looking for your husband if there is no sign of him by next Wednesday we will go in ...4/5 days later !!! |

Sadly Society as once was no longer exists,years ago her neibours would have missed her and investigated.nowadays everyone seems to be strangers even in a close environment.you cannot blame any government for this its just the way Society has sadly developed.may she rest in peace. |

I'm not surprised either Sirius............just sad that once upon a time this lady was probably loved and cared for yet died alone and was missed by no-one. |

I will still be paying off the mortgage into my 70s, assuming I last that long, and manage to keep paying it. |
