I worry about tripping and falling as well. I've always been uncoordinated in a klutz.
But now it’s a life and death situation. So my brother gave me a pair of trekking poles a couple weeks ago and I’ve been using them to prevent falls and walk around the block. I haven’t quite got the hangover it yet but it’s working pretty good. I haven’t fallen yet. I need to get out and walk just for my mental health with nothing else. but those faceplants on the sidewalk can be painful.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
