The top of my cane is right at the crease in my hip.
"They" told me and taught me to use the cane on the right (the good side).
I just couldn't though because, at that time, my hands hurt so much from the neuropathy -- I couldn't stand the pressure on my hand.
I use the cane on the "bad" side.
I always figure the cane is like a third leg -->> cane/left_leg/right_leg. I always have the support of the right leg and the cane. I guess someone who considers herself a talking moose can be just as weird as she wants to be
