My first thought is for this person to get the Blind Shell 2 and use Be my
Eyes and the desktop monitor with the CGM. I'm not sure if Be My Eyes is
available on the Blind Shell, you may have to help her and check this out.
That would be the closest thing to self monitoring.

Good Morning,

 

I received an email about an elderly lady that cannot use a smart phone and
cannot stick her finger and get blood to test her levels. The answer for her
is to use a CGM, but there is the problem of using a smart phone of which
she do not do. Do anyone have a solution for this lady?

 

Thanks,

Walter Mitchell
