TKR at 81, living alone, and with balance difficulty: a good idea?

Sage advice, @sbcarcht. Thank you. I have trekking poles. However, I've nt done enough walking on uneven surfaces. I'm doing PT once a week with an excellent therapist, and when I see him next I'll ask to add more uneven ground walking into our regimen. What you say about micro balance conditioning makes a lot of sense. Again, thank you! –Ray (@ray666)

@ray666 I think it was in neuropsychologist Daniel Levitin’s book Successful Aging that I picked up the idea that walking on uneven surfaces was good for the brain and balance.
