IAN CRAWFORD DOESNT LET THE COLD KEEP HIM INSIDE...
"I cant stand treadmills, so Im an outdoor runner no matter what the weather is."
HE MAY LOOK LIKE THE PICTURE OF HEALTH -- BUT, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IAN HAS HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND TAKES A DAILY PILL.
(cabinet shuts)
NOT ONLY DOES IAN KEEP ACTIVE OUTSIDE -- HE WORKS 60 HOURS A WEEK AS A LAWYER, AND TAKING HIS MEDICINE ISNT ALWAYS TOP OF MIND.
"Sometimes you will, Ill come home, and did I remember to take it?"
(typing on computer)
DOCTOR JOSEPH KVEDAR SAYS MANY PEOPLE HAVE HEALTH PROBLEMS, LIKE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE OR CHOLESTEROL, THAT DONT MAKE THEM SICK NOW -- BUT LEFT UNTREATED COULD KILL THEM LATER ON. PROBLEM IS, ITS EASY TO FORGET TO TAKE A PILL IF YOU FEEL FINE.
"Fifty percent of the time actually, people do not take their medications properly. And about a quarter of the time its because they simply forgot."
NOW, THIS DEVICE HELPS THEM REMEMBER. WHEN YOU TAKE OFF THE PILL BOTTLE CAP, THIS LEVER GOES UP, TRIGGERING A CELL PHONE INSIDE THIS PACK TO SEND OUT A TEXT MESSAGE. THAT MAKES A GLOWING GLOBE INSIDE YOUR HOME CHANGE FROM RED TO GREEN.
"I can just go check the globe, and the globe will confirm whether in fact I took it or forgot to that morning."
THE IDEA IS A CONSTANT -- BUT NOT ANNOYING REMINDER THAT FITS INTO THE DÉCOR OF YOUR HOME.
"Its an instant reminder as I look at it, and it works pretty well."
AND WHEN HE COMES HOME FROM HIS DAY IN COURT, IAN WILL HAVE ALL THE EVIDENCE HE NEEDS BEFORE HE POPS A PILL.
