microchip me im ready

MICROCHIP ME IM READY
if you have a loved one you are caring for at home who has dementia you know it crosses your mind
will they slip out the door when im not looking and escape

each year in the los angeles area there is a family who talks at the alzheimers walks about their mom wife sister neighbor who wandered off never to be seen again
no
we you dont want that to happen to our loved ones
right

when i did my alzheimers panel in santa monica recently as i was sitting at the panel table with an alzheimers couple she the caregiver he the patient i noticed this bracelet he had on
the kind you have to have cut off to remove
you know like the home arrest folks wear on their ankles

this one he had on was obtained from the local police department for a monthly fee
it has a gps tracker on it that gets activated when the need arises
the police can turn it on and track the person down

so
with interest i read the article about how folks are microchiping themselves in sweden
thousands of folks
its a tiny rice size chip that gets placed under the skin above the thumb
flash you hand across the scanners to get in a building in your home buy a starbucks and more

it has no batteries to be replaced since scanners pick up the data like off a credit card

now
what i would like to see is someway that could be converted to a gps card that a person could be tracked

thats what i would like to see
an implantable gps microchip to track me down when my time comes

when they gets invented
i say
microchip me now
im ready
