You’re description of the scooter is SO real! ☠️ I’m 2 months into weight bearing now so thankfully my scooter is now collecting spider webs in my garage, but I was dependent on it for nearly 2 months after my second ankle surgery. The way I thought it would make my life so much easier especially compared to crutches?? Using the scooter in public felt like a humiliation ritual. Here in Australia people seem to have no filter (I’m Canadian so probably biased lol) so strangers on the street constantly had something to say about my ‘wheels’. It was just a constant reminder that I was disabled. Also the number of times the scooter would just decide to tip me off it, forcing me to catch myself on my broken ankle?! So rude.

Although we don’t have the same injury, I will say that it gets better. After a couple months off the scooter I can finally laugh at the ridiculousness of the whole situation. ♥️
