Guess who’s insurance is going to help pay for a rollator!

So tell me- what are your tips? Do you have your dog tuck under it while your sitting? Do you let your dog do DPT while your sitting? What are your favorite accessories? What leash do you suggest? Over the shoulder, traffic lead, or in hand? I can’t wait to be able to travel more, have fun, have some freedom! Do you have any safety tips or cautions? Do you have ways of winterizing yours? Would zip ties on the wheels work like they do with wheelchairs? I live in new york, we get what feels like half a year of snow and ice.

Reblog with a pic!

I have a few mobility aids. :-)

Pictured here is my NOVA GetGo Petite Rollator with cane holder and cane attached, my trekking poles (leaning on the walker), my (kid-sized) SmartCrutches (in the back corner), my Walk Aid scooter, and my folding cane.

I pick which mobility aid to use in a given situation depending on a bunch of factors, including where I’m going, what I need to accomplish, if I need to carry anything, and how my body is feeling on that day. Variety also seems to help reduce my pain.

And, yeah, you can probably tell that I like purple (and blue).  :-)
