95 yr old Ohio man dodges nursing home

Seniors born before 1956 rush to get new miracle device that comes with free monthly service for life and unlimited nationwide help with just the push of a button

-

His name is Harry, but everybody calls him Pete.

He’s a feisty g uy that ca n jitterbug better than someone more than half his age. Pete Shaw is the life of the party. He can tell one joke after the other a nd usua lly holds cour t doing just that.

Pete is 95 years old. He served in World War II at Normandy and has a wall full of medals to prove it.

“It started with the slower steps, t he r e duce d he a r i n g a nd v i s ion . I hated it , but I sta r t ed th i n k i ng maybe it was time to g ive up the apartment,” said Pete.

Then his son and daughter-in-law suggested he move in w ith them and Pete reluctantl­y agreed.

Ever y thing seemed f ine at f irst.

“T his little FastHelp device is my guardian angel . I’m so glad my daughter-in-law got it for me.” -Pete Shaw Decorated W WII Veteran

B ut t hen Pet e’s d au ght er -i n - l aw, M a r ya n ne, b e ga n t o not ice t he shuff ling steps, the diff iculty manag ing mundane tasks, like putting on h is socks but worst of a l l she found out about some falls, nothing serious yet but really disturbing.

Ma r ya n ne st a r t e d t o get wor - r ie d b e c au s e s he a nd her hu s - band weren’t home 24 -7 and what if something happened when they weren’t around? That wasn’t a risk Maryanne was willing to take.

“I sta r ted look i ng i nto med ica l alert devices. But the monthly fees were like $50 to $100 ever y single month.” said Maryanne, “That adds up quick ly a nd quite honestly we just didn’t have that in the budget not to mention all the other costs, equipment, installati­on, deposits, it never ends.”

“Ju st when it s e eme d l i ke th i s story was going to end in a permanent nursing home stay for Pete, I saw an ar ticle about FastHelp in the newspaper,” continued Ma r ya n ne, “I ca lled a nd I found out it instantly connects you to unlimited help, nationw ide, ever y where cell service is available.”

“That pa r t was g reat, but what rea lly got my attention was there a re no contr ac t s , no dep o sit s , a nd no monthly bills ever,” Ma r yanne explained, “it was like all my prayers were answered, Pete would be able to avoid the nursing home.”

“When I think back on it, if Pete would have been sent to a nursing home there’s no telling what would have happened. We could have lost h i m for ever,” s a id a n emot ion a l M a r y a n ne Sh aw, “Fa s t Help h a s been a Godsend for us.”

Fa s t Help come s w it h s t at e - ofthe-art cellular embedded technolog y which means it works at home or any where, anytime cell service is available so whether Pete or one of the brand new 50,000 users is out water ing the ga rden, dr iv ing in a car, at church or even hundreds of miles away on a tour or at a casino they are never alone.

“We’ve never seen any thing like it . Fol ks absolutely love the sleek new moder n desig n a nd most of a l l, it’s f ree for l i fe,” s a id Joseph Rodgers, Chief of Staff for Universal Physicians, the tech g iant that developed and markets FastHelp.

“S o i f you’ve ever felt a me d i - ca l a ler t dev ice wa s t oo compl i - cated or ex pensive, you’ll wa nt to get FastHelp, the sleek new medical aler t dev ice w ith no monthly bills, that’s my pitch.” Rodgers said.

“A n d t h e b e s t p a r t i s t h e r e ’s a b s olut ely not h i n g t o ho ok- up or i nsta l l. You don’t need a la nd li ne a nd you don’t ne e d a cel l phone. Ever y thing is done for you and my husba nd rea l ly appreciate­d that .” said Maryanne Shaw.
