Crutches, Walkers, Knee Wraps

Crutches, walkers, knee wraps, ankle wraps, wheelchairs, hot and icy. Yes, I do have all of these things, ice bags too, and I am not afraid to use them. I have arthritis in my feet. It is crazy how awful it can be to take a step sometimes and know You cannot take another one. You have to have an assist to go one more stupid step. I am always alert, aware, ready, as it happens more and more often lately, especially in stores. With their hard concrete coming up to meet the bottom of your shoe. I actually have two walkers, because I did not see the one with the seat Until I had already bought the one without one. And I never take anything back. Our first baby had three buggies, But that is another story For another poem.

I know, and my shoulder hurts too. Do not get old all at once like I did, Maureen. Take your time.
