I’m disabled and I get picked up in ambulances a handful of times every year. Sometimes I’m unconscious, sometimes I don’t have my ID. My health is bad enough that minutes literally matter in those situations (my heart “pauses”). I’d imagine there’s thousands of people in the same boat.
Before anyone asks, this was more at the beginning of my illness 16 years ago, I am better about keeping my ID and medical info on me now. But people make mistakes and forget, especially when they’re ill.
