We both want to say a big thank you to Lindsay and Julie (OT) for all the help you gave us yesterday when we came to look at a walker. Julie was so kind and patient showing us different models and also other aids for independent living. It was invaluable in helping us make a decision about what we needed.
I am getting on really well with the walker, we went to the playing field in the village yesterday afternoon, it was so much easier walking with the new walker, there was no problem walking on the grass at all, we walked across to a seat I haven’t been able to walk to for several months. I know I’ll soon be able to walk around the field as we used to, it’s so lovely starting to feel independent and able to do things again! My husband took a photo of me with the walker and we sent it to our family, our grandson who is 8, wanted to know if he could have a walk with it when they come to see us next!
Thank you both again for everything you did for us yesterday, Julie did say we could come and look at other things to help me in the future if we’d like to so we’ll certainly keep that in mind. The walker has truly made a big difference to my independence, it is so much easier for me walking now!
