Yes.....I couldn't think of the name!! Wonder why?

I think a rollator woud make things so much easier for me but I'm just hesitant about using it. I was the same way about my cane. But the cane really doesn't help me keep or regain my balance. The main reason I use it is so other people won't think I'm drunk!

I will get a rollator for me to use after I have surgery. With my balance being so bad I know it will keep me from falling. It's just hard to admit I need it. KWIM?
