Medical Memento

[venta]

I've just had this news story pointed out to me by my boss. [Short version: elderly woman gets "Do not resuscitate" tattoo.]

Now, the 'no under 16s' signs outside tattoo parlours always say "except for medical reasons". Does anyone know how common this actually is? Although I know a few people who have potentially life-threatening conditions, none of them have tattoos to ensure this information is read... though a couple of them do wear those SOS Talisman necklaces.

Yup, I've seen a fair few of them around in stations recently. With big labels saying that they must only be used by trained personnel - so no chance of theft :)
