David,

Thank you for your reply. Let me start this post by saying I am sorry for your loss. I am happy to hear you were blessed again with little ones. I have one 2 year old and one on the way. This is the main reason for this emergency card. I would have replied to your post first since you did reply to me first, but I felt that other guy's post needed to be addressed immediately.

Thanks for the constructive input on the physical make up of your emergency card. I had my doubts about using yellow or orange fluorescent paper. I'm glad to hear it has been used with good results.

I like the idea about folding and then lamiating the folded card too. I have something to add to that idea. Why not make a little cut at the 'cut here for more info' instruction. You know... like on a packet of ketcup. That way the person who needs that info doesn't need a knife to open the card.

Thanks
Wayneburg



/edit I forgot to mention why I'm including the relation these emergency contacts have to me. This way whoever comes upon my unconscious body can determine who to contact in what order. And they will know what relation each contact has to the others. As I stated they will be placed in groups on the card by household.

I feel I need this information on the card. If it wasn't there then I would just make a card that says....
"IN CASE OF EMERGENCY CALL 911"
and leave it at that.
