John is a 9 year-old boy with a severe Penicillin allergy, but his medical alert tag kept getting “lost”. It’d turn up weeks later in the sock drawer or bottom of the school bag – that’s how a pre-teen tells you “Not cool, mom!”
So John’s mom asked me to make something that is ”cool” enough for him to wear – keeping John safe and bringing his mom peace of mind.
This rather ‘deadly’ bullet casing from a local flea market fit the bill. We sunk a hole to take the sturdy silver chain and polished the casing. The awesome Martin O’Keefe hand-engraved this medical symbol and allergy details, name & contact number.
John hasn’t taken it off since he got it – John safe, mom happy.
