I Figured Out My Cane

I wrote a post about my HurryCane a while back. I thought I was going to fall and end up killing myself. Why? Because it would scoot out infront of me occasionally for no particular reason. It scared me. Many Mylot members told me I should get one the quad-type cane's. I checked some out online. Gheez! Those sucker's are huge. No. I wasn't going to go there. So I started examining my Hurry. It has a place in the middle of the shaft where I can unscrew it. And, there are little round knobs with holes so you can make it shorter. Erika! I started bringing it down one knobby over time. Then I'd walk with it that way for a while. I took it down 4 knobbies. Now it works wonderfully. See, I have faith in my Hurry.

I like my quad-cane because it is stable and I don't fall while using it. I'm glad you adjusted your cane and like it better now.

I'm glad I was able to find a working situation with it. This saves me between $40 and $60.

Sorry I'm a bit confused of what you're talking about - cane and hurrycane. What's hurrycane?

I'm glad you have that worked out. I've thought about getting a quad cane.

That's great that your cane is now behaving itself and waiting for you without scooting away from you.
