Good day to you all

Post by dead-man-walking »

please excuse the forum name as its a personal thing.
being a diabetic, should the SHTF then i know i wont have that long of a functional lifespan, however my personal goal is to be able to "prep" a resource base for my family, both in assets and in knowledge.
so for me my aim is to have a usable supply of staple food stocks for a month and also have suitable bug out kits and coms equipment.
that should buy me enough time to "source" what meds i can obtain/need and also have suitable bug out kits and coms equipment

No way u can prep for that? I suffer from Fibromyalgia. God knows how I cope If SHTF. I cannot walk far and fatigue is big issue for me! not to mention a list of issues!

I am also planning for family, hope I will cope! There must be a way u can manage? Maybe have a BOL for all us with Med problems! LOL GOOD LUCK.

unfortunatly, due to living in the uk and being on prescription only meds im sure as many others have found getting a "backup" supply is... problematic, add in factors like chilled storage and it gets worse

Hi everyone
I woke up, fully woke up at the start of this year and started buying precious metals.
Having done that, I am now starting to prep on other items starting off with food, and now onto other necessary items.
Will be doing a bushcraft course next weekend to learn some basic survival skills.
More and more of us are waking up now. Its getting pretty obvious now isn't it, that things aren't right in the world.

If u could get the drugs.

1) What about a leisure 12v battery(must be leisure, more hardy on recharging)

2)With a slow trickial charge via solar pane(can get on amazon folds up like brief case!)l.

3)You can they get a mini fridge that runs on dc Hey presto. This could extend the life of your drugs.
