Humble
Yesterday I took a walk with my daughter, because of my balance I used my cane for the first time. What a humbling experience. Is using a walking aid embarrassing for any of you?

Yes I feel embarrassed using my rollator and mobility scooter but it doesn’t stop me using them. I hate being disabled and needing them 😳
My life is consigned to a wheelchair, and has been for a long time now thanks to my MS, and I am fine with it. I see no shame in using one to get around and doing my daily routine as no one should. I had said I would not use one until I could not get around until I had to use my chin to accomplish it and guess what, that is what happened so I use a wheelchair daily.
