@gingerw This is not meant for you, but all readers concerned with keeping mobile and not falling. "Stepping On" has been offered by our Community Ed for many years. I was only in my 50's but took it so I could help an older sibling who lived four hours from us. The class was once a week for two hours for six weeks 30 minutes from our home. A time commitment, but well worth it. Rule 1 of the class was when we had an open discussion, "What you shared in the class, stayed in the class."

@smiles1951 It sounds like you are an exceptional sibling!
I think a lot of Community Centers around the country have similar programs and classes (usually at no cost or very little cost) for seniors that want to work on balance and mobility issues.
And, that’s a great rule that must have encouraged sharing.
