My knees weren't made for walking.

I've been increasingly struggling to get around these past weeks, so I've finally decided to take a look at walking canes, walkers and rollators. As an under-30-year-old I have mixed feelings about getting a walking aid. I don't really want to lug something around and like most folks my age, I have a feeling that there might be a stigma that goes with it. But on the other hand, it might be a relief to walk with more ease, and who knows--maybe it'll keep folks from crashing into me at Walmart with their carts since I'm young and they're impatient.

Consequently, I've been looking for some more fashionable canes. And then I came across this gem.


Isn't that the coolest?! Go to ArCaneLutherie's Etsy listing to see more photos and hear a clip of this lovely invention being played. 

I'm not really an impromptu performer, or otherwise I would seriously want one of these gorgeous devices.

As it is, I'm hoping to go to a local medical supply store later this week and check out some less amazing canes and walkers to see if we can find something that'll help me out.
