oh yeah, right. any young healthy person wants to use a walker in public.....plllleeeeaaaase.

if people treated me badly in a store i A. wouldn't go there anymore and/or B. go complain to the manager.

i just got a really cute blue kitty cover for my walker. it covers the seat and the back support bar. got it from QVC. at least it's a conversation starter.

Yeah, I was 25, and I have always had a hard time standing up for myself. Starting to get better about that.

Since that happened I find myself to have my guard up constantly. Always expecting to get snide remarks from people any time we park in the handicap space that I have the permit for. The dirty looks I get are ridiculous! I'm afraid if anyone ever does say anything I may just go off on them

It must be the time of year for falls, cuz Ive been falling more than usual myself. Never knew just trying to crawl into bed I would miss that big old queen size mattress and hit the floor instead. I fell the other day and hit the bedroom door and a bookshelf before hitting the floor. Had to make sure I didn't just hit the floor. Told my db its a gravity check. Gotta find humor
