I saw someone using this item and thought this would be great for when we have sprained an ankle, broke a foot, or had foot surgery. I wish that they had these when I had my foot surgery! I would not have had to hop everywhere. Hope it will help someone.....Judy

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

That's a good option for folks like us.
I can't use crutches or walker they both require weight bearing.

I saw a man about a month ago using this! I told Brian that if I ever needed crutches that would be what I would have to use. I could never use conventional crutches!
It was pretty neat.

Re: new item for those of us needing crutches
This item works great as long as you can weight bear on your knee and don't have an arthritic condition.
