How I get into my house with a “knee scooter” with a broken foot.

I broke my foot on 8/18/22 while dancing with a young man at Irwin, Pa’s “Music in the Streets.” He led me into a speaker and I fell down. Everyone has been so nice to me, after the accident (as well as before the accident. I only have nice people in my life). I have been lent three “knee scooters.” These knee scooters are much easier than crutches, I think. Even while using the great invention called a knee scooter or knee rover, I am very sore and tired from all the changes in my life. I am keeping a good attitude, although I cry. My surgery will be August 26, 2022. I have a displaced fracture on metatarsal 5. I hope my video today encourages anyone who might need a knee scooter. Having two brakes is safer, I think. I like the basket and water bottle holders on the other ones, but safety is the main concern for me. I am a dance instructor and personal trainer. I am so glad I have this business entrance into my home. You’ll see my home studio and how I can go up the stairs to the place where I live.

Thank you. I hope you heal well. As you heal, you will get ideas on how you can help others if they have ankle surgery and you’ll be a good resource for others when they are hurt. I’m helping my mom right now who walks with a walker. It’s much easier to transport a walker than my knee scooter was. I’m so thankful for all the people who were kind to me when I was not allowed to bear my own weight. Right now you are on the receiving end. When you are healed, you’ll be on the giving end. I’m cheering you on.

I am on a knee scooter right now. My strong suggestion would be to anybody on a knee scooter to wear an athletic shoe on your good foot and not a flip-flop like she has on. That is much more stable…!! otherwise I’m very impressed by her athleticism!

I go down the steps on my butt. I crawl up putting my bad ankle’s knee on the step and my good foot on the step. It works for me. I use a sit down walker to get around. I can sit and scoot myself around or use it like a knee scooter. I feel a lot safer with it.

Thank you for your comment. I am hoping you’ll heal fast. I followed my doctor’s orders and I’m doing really well now. Please call your doctor and ask that question.

Not much help if you aren't in a position to have multi scooters.

I put a Facebook post up, asking if anyone had a knee-scooter. I teach older adult exercise classes and I am an older adult, so many of my friends responded. The scooter was excellent for traveling as long as my driver was strong enough to load it in their car and unload it. I used a walker inside my house as I got stronger. I am very fortunate not to have to enter my house going up steps. I would have worn out the seat of my pants. I hope everyone has social groups that will help them search for what they need to heal. They do sell knee-scooters online. The secret is to get the word out of what we need.
