As someone who does not use a mobility aid yet, I aspire to be as confident in my use of them as all of you appear to be. It never ruins an outfit, and I barely notice them (unless it’s been gorgeously decorated-I love yall that do it).

Thank you! It took a lot of time to get to this level of confidence, and I still have days when it’s hard and I wish I didn’t have to use them (like around new friends/people I haven’t seen since I started using them) but it gets easier. It does help that I’ve got one “fancy” cane for when I need to look more professional, and one “fun” cane that I have stickers all over.
