@emily_l_carter_author: Today was the first time I took my crutch to the park with my kids. I was in so much pain that I needed it, but I still felt embarrassed using it. Then I realised my children weren't looking at the crutch, they were just happy I was there. Chronic pain changes so much, but it shouldn't stop us making memories 💜 #chronicpain #fibromyalgia #mobilityaid #invisibleillness #chronicillness

I use crutches daily and figured if people want to stare then give them something to stare at, making your crutches feel like you is a very nessecery thing imo

I struggle so bloody much using my crutch outside. it's like I need to hide it, when in reality it preserves so much energy if I'd just use it! 🤣 ps - get the comfy supportive footwear on girl. makes such a difference to my back and hips xx

for your kids they wont remember as much the times you were at work, the things they bought them or the money you spent on them. they remember the time you spent with them, the memories of laughing, watching a film together , playing in the park or at home , you supporting them and loving them unconditionally ❤️. your so strong for pushing through for them from a broken child , grown up with fibro , your amazing and please remember that 🥰

I have a mobility scooter but the companies for scooters are so corrupt con. con for money. 1st one broke took 12 month for them to replace still got my money. got new one after fighting within 8 weeks broke again. back to square 1. i use a stick its got colourful circles on it of amazon. use foot insoles. the amount of looks comments I have on my scooter or stick is sad. but there is also helpful kind people. dont worry about others. if it helps u do it i use aid everyday cus i struggle staying in.. much love proud of u ur aid doesn't define you keep being you 💛💛💛💛

At first I was the same when I had to start using crutches for the pain! my knees and hips give pain daily ! the crutches help me be there to see the smiles on their faces at the park, or anything else I had been missing out on

I am a left leg amputee. I was issued a pair of these crutches from hospital. l found using them singular very dangerous, as you can 'wobble' in them. l went out and bought a pair of non telescopic poles (ski), and fitted the rubber ends, they aid with walking on any surface, and do not make a sound.
