Thanks for your nice note. I haven't been much of a walker but would like to change that now that I'm vaccinated and am getting out more. I haven't been feeling very steady on my feet and have been overly concerned about falling for some time. I recently figured out my paralyzed diaphragm was causing my sense of not feeling/being secure while walking. I think these walking sticks are going to make a big difference but can get one of those tall upright walkers if they don't. It's really nice to be getting outside. I love reading your posts and being part of this group will help motivate me. Thanks for being so welcoming!
