This morning I’ll be taking Mrs rb downtown. It will be her first attempt at going to town.
The X-rays show some bone growth but not enough bone structure yet to be gadding about. I supppose having osteo-porosis doesn’t help?

Good luck and Godspeed. Does she have a wheelchair os other suitable mobility device?

She is using a walker which she wasn’t supposed to use. Surgeon suggested a zimmer frame but she’d already been using the walker and stubbornly refused to use the zimmer.

I don’t understand the difference. And I’ve not heard the zimmer word used here for mobility devices (only ever heard it used in British dramas, and assumed it is a brand name or something), they are all walking frames/walkers/wheelie frames. I presume you mean she should be using one without wheels at this stage so it can’t get away from her?
