You Got a Walker. So Why Are You Going Out Less Than Before?

After my hip replacement, I had a walker but it was too bulky to take out. My daughter invited me to Thanksgiving in Seattle — I had to stay home.

Last Thanksgiving I flew to Seattle alone. Rolloy fit in the overhead bin. My daughter cried when she saw me walk out.

My walker scratched the hardwood floors every time I moved. The building manager complained twice. I live alone on the third floor and the elevator is narrow — I had to angle the frame sideways just to get in. Some days I just didn't bother going out.

I take the elevator down every morning and walk to the corner bakery. Last Tuesday I checked out books at my old library — this time as a customer. The young librarian didn't even notice the walker.

Mom called me every morning before she got out of bed. Not to chat — to tell me she was about to try standing up, just in case. I live forty minutes away. I spent two years waiting for a call that something had gone wrong.

She stopped calling me in the mornings. She could live independently with the help of Rolloy rollator. And she even went for a trip with her friends. Rolloy gives her freedom back.

The VA gave me a standard walker. It barely folded and couldn't be loaded in my car. My buddy invited me fishing — I couldn't fit it and the gear.

I can fold down compactly in seconds and it fits right in the back seat. Last week I drove to the lake, loaded my own gear. Nobody had to help.

The frame was too wide for my bathroom door. My son had to come over every morning just to help me get started. I'm 81 years old — I coached three hundred kids how to be independent. Needed help brushing my teeth.

I get up at 6am and make my own breakfast. My son still visits, but now we watch the game instead of him babysitting me. That's how it should be.

My wife and I dreamed of a cruise after retirement. But my old walker was too big for the cabin, too wide for ship corridors.

Caribbean cruise — seven days, zero problems. Rolloy folded compactly and stood upright on its own, fitting perfectly under every dinner table.
