I’ve gotten very wobbly lately and have fallen a few times. No injures but lots of embarrassment

So after I fell yesterday and my wife called 911 to help me up, she bought me a walker

It’s not my idea of where my life should be right now but I guess if it keeps me from falling face first into the floor It’ll be worth it

Tell Dutch I have these damned skates laced up as tight as I can

Well, that definitely sucks.

As for walkers, they have fancy ones like a tricycle that have wheels and a handbrake if you are inclined to race. Or with the traditional walker, you can hang a basket to hold your beer and ribs as you move around.

Prayers out to you.

This one will get me around. I just don’t want to fall again or hear my wife tell me how hot those firemen were

Wes, you're doing this in the exact right way. Focus on what you need, not on how you'd like things to be.

Regarding the selection of a walker, make sure you consult someone well aware of your situation so that they get you the correct type. When my dad needed a walker I thought the four wheel type was best (my mom had used both so we had access to either). Because he wasn't as stable, though, the medical staff I spoke with recommended a two wheel device. Point being, there are many people out there who can help with every decision, so use their expertise rather than trying to do it yourself.

Good luck with everything and NEGU.
 
Wes, my mother was not happy about getting a walker, but after a day in the hospital after falling face first on the ground, she was glad to have it.

Oh, and Steelfrog sends his prayers and invocations.

Wes, sounds like another thing to look forward to after a full recovery. Keep your head up. Literally. If you don't it means the walker didn't serve its intended purpose.

Next time request the ugly firemen. Or the hot firewomen.

Wes, I was a fireman for nearly 30 years. We assisted lots of folks in your situation and it was never a bother. Do not hesitate to call 911 if you need help. You've paid property taxes your whole life and are certainly entitled to getting a little something in return now; let them help...God bless you.

And remember, it could always be worse. You could be a Frog baseball player.

In Wes’s case, his life has become a vapor characterized by a high concentration of methane.

Hey Wes. We have never formally met but I am 38 and I have used a walker in the past (I now use a Cane sometimes). It is what it is my friend. NEGU and keep fighting the good fight
