Financial information

After spending 4 years in negotiations with US and foreign companies on licensing my US Patent
# 7,941,876 (for the prevention of hip fracture and automatic, electronic call for help), I would now prefer to sell it outright. It is the best in design, both technically and in practical applicability, of the patented and unpatented such items AND there are ca. 400,000 hip fractures/year in the USA alone.
