Thanks for sharing the success story. It’s so much fun to hear about a win!

I enjoyed hearing a bit about the Lifestream application too. Several friends of mine have parents who are experiencing health concerns. One makes planned weekly trips from Minneapolis to the farm in Southern Minnesota – and several more unplanned trips. Another took three 2-week trips to Ireland (from St Paul) last year before her mother sadly passed this summer.

Being able to track their parents from long distance would help these friends sleep better at night, miss less work and enjoy time with their parents more (more time on the farm, less with the doctor).

Thanks! Ann
