JG yeah if i want that i have my medic alert bracelet for that (it speaks for me when i cannot. and i use a usb where they can print off what ever they like and need. no need for online records. plus here you need a GP referral to see any specialist. So you take with you when you see then so while they read that they can print off my medications list off my usb my medical history pertaining to that particular problem is in the drs referral and nothing else.

[johngriffen]

We've had cases here when medic alert bracelets have been damaged or destroyed in car accidents or fires, and the doctors are flying blind with the clock ticking
I hear your concerns and totally understand... but, again, I'm more concerned about being treated properly than the "potential" for access to my records.
If somebody hacks my financials, I can always try to clean it up later and fix the problem
If I die because some emergency room doctor doesn't know the meds I'm on or what my existing conditions are, I can't fix that later

rest in peace Aretha Franklin QUEEN OF SOUL!!! you will be sorely missed

[johngriffen]

The story of how Franklin was crowned “the Queen of Soul” begins in Chicago in 1967.

Franklin was headlining a show at the city's renowned Regal Theater, where the city’s legendary radio disc jockey and promoter Pervis "The Blues Man" Spann produced concerts for blues and soul acts.

During that time, the Regal Theater hosted numerous black soul and R&B acts, including Motown groups like The Temptations and The Marvelettes, Franklin recalled to The Chicago Defender in 2015.

“Great days, the best days,” she told the paper. “You would taste the best hamburgers from the back door of the
After her performance at the Regal, Spann presided over a coronation of sorts, placing a crown on Franklin’s head and dubbing her “the Queen of Soul.” Franklin, who had been wearing a form-hugging sequined silver gown, later gushed remembering the moment: “I never thought it would happen!” according to the book “Aretha Franklin” by Jim McAvoy.

Nearly five decades later, in 2015, Franklin would also recount the night to The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

“That happened when I was at the Regal Theater in Chicago, which was very much like The Apollo in New York,” she told the paper. “[Spann] walked on stage one evening with a crown, and I went, ‘Whoooa! What is this?’”

But she embraced her newfound title. “Who wouldn’t want to be called ‘Queen’?” she said.

She was one of the greats...
