It’s the first day of school. Her backpack is packed, her outfit is picked, and her smile says she’s ready. But as her mom, I still worry.
My daughter has a severe peanut and tree nut allergy. One accidental snack swap or classroom party could turn into an emergency. That’s why I made sure she left the house wearing something more important than new shoes: her medical alert jewelry.
We’ve picked out a few different pieces — a pearl heart necklace, a cross, and a silicone bracelet — so she can choose which one to wear each day. Some we found on Etsy, others on Amazon. They’re cute, comfortable, and most importantly, help her communicate her needs when seconds count.
If something happens, her teachers, school staff, or first responders can instantly see her allergy and know exactly what to do.
Medical alert jewelry gives her the independence she craves, and me the peace of mind I need.
And it’s not just for younger kids — as teens head off to college and start managing their health more independently, medical alert jewelry becomes just as important. It speaks for them when they can’t, no matter where they are.
Because back to school should be exciting — not scary.
