"Hello, I am a 65-year-old female diagnosed with PPMS in 2018. I am currently struggling with a cane though I have a brand-new rollator sitting in my garage. I'm not ready to use it and the same with "THE CHAIR". I admit there sure are times I need one of the other, it's my pride in the way. I stopped working (30 years CPS) in 2018 as my Dr. signed me 100% disabled. I also stopped driving in 2018 due to cognitive decline. I never knew where I was; getting lost even in my hometown. Now I celebrate the small moments of life. "

  1. Hi, ! Thank you for sharing your story. It sounds like you’ve had to navigate so many difficult changes, but I love that you’re choosing to focus on the moments that bring you happiness. And I can understand why the rollator feels like such a big step. But after everything you’ve been through, you deserve to have tools that make life a little easier and help you enjoy your days with less worry. Using a rollator doesn’t take away your strength or independence, it’s just another way of taking care of yourself. I hope when you’re ready you’re able to see it as something that supports you, not something that limits you. 🧡 Kindly, Latoya (Team Member)
