25. I'm wearing mine forever.

My surgeon, oncologist and I have decided to call it. I'm a terminal cancer patient. Being immunocompromised, I'd like to stay "not dead" for as long as possible. I got big red masks printed with the Medalert logo on one side and "CANCER PATIENT" in the biggest letters possible on the other. If it helps keep me from being sick and gets people to back up while I'm wearing it, it's a double win.
