@ray666 I know I posted this previously, but I started using a cane in my late 30's when I didn't absolutely need it because I knew it would get harder to admit I needed it as I got older. I'm now almost 72! I still find it helpful to experiment as I don't need the cane 100% of the time, so I try different approaches in different situations to see how I feel.

Hello, Miriam (@mir123). When it comes to cane use, I'm still a picker & chooser: I pick & choose between occasions when I know having a cane will be an asset and occasions when, from past experience, I don't need a cane (at least not yet 🙂 ). I'm sure if & when the day comes I need to graduate (graduate? that seems an odd word) to using a walker, I'll again be a picker & chooser, deciding between occasions before taking a walker along. ––Ray (@ray666)
