I have mobility issues. Bought myself one of those rollinator that makes walking more secure and has a seat so I can get off my feet. I have protest pals who are not spring chickens. We take turns using the seat. It works out for some of us. And I am seeing more people showing up with those rolling walkers. Really makes it safer to get out.
