takin’ a wee walk

While in the hospital, they failed to have PT staff work with me and were too short-handed to help me get out of bed to walk. As a result, when I was released I could not even stand up, let alone walk. That’s why I was sent to a rehab nursing home for a few weeks — to relearn how to stand up and how to walk. Now I’m home and still using this walker sometimes, but I’m also walking some on my own. We ate out yesterday and I walked into the restaurant on Bill’s arm without the walker entirely!

Our daughter-in-law Carrie sewed the bag hanging by Velcro straps on the front — first to use on the arm of my wheelchair, then moved over to the walker. Handy for carrying books, art supplies, an iPad, and even a snack.
