The Ankle Chronicles - post 7 of who the fuck knows

Here is a picture of the tricycle (or "Seated Scooter") I rented for the remainder of this ankle pain in the ass(I've had it for 2 weeks now). You put your bad leg up on one of the cross bars in front of the front wheels and then push off the ground with your good leg. I liked this option better than the knee scooter because I was gonna have to kneel on my right knee and that is a bad knee for me. I have what is called patellofemoral dysfunction and should not be putting pressure on that knee.

The scooter is a little bulky ( I am keeping it at the office now instead of hauling it back and forth between home and work, then I crutch to and from the car, then I have the wheeled walker for at home...3 mobility devices!) and it has a very wide turning radius, but it has really helped out. It arrived quickly (2 days) and the shipping was free. Then they sent me a get well soon card with a fed-ex shipping label to send the scooter back with! Very nice.
