I'm 40. I'm laying next to my wheeled walker (rollator) right now. It's the mobility aid I use when I'm not wearing my prosthesis. It's an absolute banger of a technology - a classic, so simple and elegant for its task, one of the cheapest, most effective mobillity aids you can get.

Thank you for the inspiration to buy a mobility aid to help with some persistent knee inflammation (probably arthritis-related) I’m dealing with. The ingrained ableism and stigma is real. (I also really enjoyed your book!)

Walkers should get so much more appreciation than they do.
