A couple months ago, our neighbour Jeffrey used the new knives that he and his gal Jonah bought. One slip through the baguette and well, there was a spray of blood everywhere (it's still there on the ceiling)!

Jonah, who is ironically a nurse, came up to see if we had any bandages, etc.

And normally we would have, but we had just used up the last of it (I too cut myself chopping vegetables). Jonah went from door to door and finally found some, but the next day we had a first aid kit on our doorstep.

And so, you never know when you're going to need it.

But don't you want something on hand just in case?

I think I've found the most comprehensive first aid kit out there.

The IntelligentFirstAid Talking Kit is just about the coolest thing I've ever seen!

Designed by medical and educational experts, this little grey suitcase contains everything you could ever need in a medical emergency or to tend to an eye, bone or bite/sting.

Not only do you get the supplies, but they are individually labeled and color-coded regarding each injury, so you just rip open the package and everything you need is contained within. The other packages remain closed and sterile. You then just need to replace the package you used. Even if you don't use everything in it, throw it out and get a new one - it'll remain sterile and organized that way.

Isn't that better than trying to rummage around a metal box that you've had since the 80s?

And it gets even better!!!

Visual instruction cards show you how to treat someone who's bleeding, in shock or has just broken their leg. And because each kit is suited to the injury, you only need what's in the package. So you can tend to the situation quickly and easily, even if you've never done this before.

Okay, so that is just about the best thing you've ever heard, right?

Well get ready for this:

The kit contains "an audio module for verbal guidance. By the squeeze of a button, the module narrates step-by-step instructions to manage the injury, pausing and repeating when necessary for accurate response."

And the clear, commanding female voice is exactly the kind of thing when you've got someone in front of you who needs medical attention. The instructions are clear and easy to understand and follow. It is like having an EMT right beside you all the way!
