We also use "e-Control" to remotely change TV channels for her; "Meross Plugs" to remotely switch her lights on/off; and "Amazon Echo Flex/Motion Sensor" to tell us where she might be in the house. It can all be a bit complicated to set up, but once done, gives some peace of mind from a distance.
My mother in law has dementia. We keep the landline phone there, but to avoid her dealing with scam calls, we mute it, and anyone genuine who is ringing can leave a message on the voicemail. The landline is also BT broadband. So we've set up Alexa at her house and at our house. Then we use the Alexa Dot (speaker) or Alexa Echo Show (video) systems ie the "drop in" option, where she has no buttons to press, and we can speak straight to her.
Not strange at all ....only posted after reflecting on Aguero's fantastic record yesterday...topical is all, and how we were part of some great PL moments.
Here's another one - we're only the third team in Premier League history to complete a double over Manchester United and Arsenal in the same season (2015).
Not quite in the same category as some of our fantastic victories over both clubs in our great Premier League period, but reflecting on two monumental moments (after yesterday's latest Aguero achievement), it's a memorable fact that OUR club has been involved in both those significant events....
1. Aguero's first goals in the Premier League....the start of his Premier League career as it's greatest ever overseas striker
2. Sir Alex Ferguson's last ever game in charge....the end of his Premier League career as its greatest ever Manager
With all the other wonderful memories over the last decade, we will be looking back at the greatest era of our football club.
Such a pity we've lost our way at the moment, but hey, football is ALWAYS cyclic...take the downs with the ups. But memories can never be taken away.
And by God, I also enjoyed baiting the Cardiff fans at the end of yesterday's match :)
