When I have questions about the Pen Friend I contact L. S. & S. products, who
sell the item and have a wealth of knowledge about the device.

Subject: [visionrehabtherapist] Pen Friend ??

Hi, I am working with a woman who has NLP, has a hearing loss, and diabetic
neuropathy in her hands. We are trying to find a way for her to identify
what's in her freezer and hear the cooking directions. I would like to try a
Pen Friend with her and have these questions:

1. Can I put a raised dot of Spot-n-Line or Hi Marks on the labels to the
left of where the pen goes so she will know where to aim the Pen? Do you have
another suggestion?

2. Will the labels work after being in the freezer? Do they need to be
covered to protect them from moisture? Will they work if laminated? Do you
have any suggestions for attaching the label to the polybag so that it may be
reused for the replacement bag? I was thinking of using a tag and rubber band
method but don't want to re-invent the wheel if there's a proven method.

3. If regular labels aren't recommended for the freezer, what about the Pen
Friend laundry label set?

If you have any other ideas or suggestions, I'm open to them.
​ I emailed the company but have had no response.​
Thank you!
