Is it difficult for you to walk indoors? Will a walker help you? Some come with a seat. You can use the walker to stand. Sorry to hear are having difficulty standing. Do you have a caregiver who can help you? I do the best I can due to my physical disability. I couldn’t stand or walk at first. It took time to strengthen my muscle and to learn to walk again. I still have the dizziness which limits my mobility. Push yourself to learn but be careful not to fall. It was not easy for me because the dizziness and motion sickness made me feel awful. I did what I could. I try to figure out ways to make tasks easier on me.

Be cautious using a walker. I had one and trying to stand up and fell sideways and split my head on a table. When I tried to get up I fell again. It looked like a massacre took place in my living room. I suppose I felt overly confident with the walker. So be careful.
Take care,
