They Found Him Alive

They found Domingo Martins alive after 5 days in the wild.

It has been recommended in some quarters that the elderly and/or Alzheimer patients wear a tracking bracelet but I think this was shot down because it would be a gross violation of their Charter rights.

Glad they found him alive. Missing elderly persons don't always turn out so well.

I'll tell you one thing, If there was a chance my mother or father could walk away from home and get lost, I'd sure as hell outfit them with a GPS tracking device.

I was amazed to that he survived, but luckily, he got lost in the middle of a warm summer, with shade and rainwater.

(My late dad got lost but when we barely got the search parties going with the police, he shows up home in a taxi cab wondering what all the fuss was about. He had Alzheimer's. He left his home once in the winter but a neighbor saw him and I found him in time too.)

5 days in the wild. His condition has been downgraded from serious to critical so not out of the woods yet. This sounds terrible but a chip or tracking bracelet might have helped to find him sooner.

I think you mean his condition has been downgraded from critical to serious. Apparently he was spotted entering a parking area on security camera video. They looked around and found him.

And no, tracking bracelets don't sound terrible if they help find lost Alzheimer patients sooner.

Another senior has gone missing. This one is 92 years old. If yous see an old guy wandering around, call 911. As our population ages, we can expect to see more and more seniors wandering around aimlessly. Many can't speak English so brush up on your Korean, Mandarin, Punjabi, Spanish, Arabic, etc.
