(85,722 posts)With some older people, falling can become a definite issue. My best friend, who’s a few months younger than I am, has had so much trouble as the years have passed. Sheesh! By now, she has a cane AND a wheelchair, and I think maybe also a set of crutches, and she uses ‘em all.

It's kind of coincidental that your username is Marble Falls.
