Wheel Chairs and Their Family



Recently my life has had more wheel chairs and walkers than before.
I noticed a man with one leg in a wheel chair.
He was using that leg to move forward as well as his arms.

I reflected on how useful that clever collection of parts is for him.
His mobility is greatly increased due to such a device.

I recall when I was in rehab from a major collision.
I was struck from behind while on my bicycle.
It was a hit and run incident.
My neck, back and ankles were injured.
I was in the hospital for 1 month and in the rest home for 2 months.
I slowly graduated from crutches to a walker and left the rest home with a cane.
I left the can behind a few weeks later.

Those devices were my silent servants as my body repaired.

I say that wheel chairs, crutches, walkers and canes are related.
They are related as silent servants in a family to aid in mobility.
There are motorized scooters that are cousins but there are not totally silent.


I see you there silent servants.
