I get off the bus at Mumford terminal to wait for my ride. I see an older lady about 2-74 yrs going around a lamp post with her walker. I said what the fuck!! I mean what do you do a) try to help her and figure out if she needs medical help b) do nothing. Its a bitch to me cause I don’t like to see people like that on the streets, people can take advantage of them. What would you do?

I’ve seen her before, too. I asked a security guard to speak to her, out of concern, and she says she’s out for a walk, that’s all…she just happens to walk in circles at Walmart. 🙂
I’ve seen her too. I think its basically the equivalent of a treadmill for her. She’s trying to get some exercise, but at this time of year there aren’t many places a person who depends on a walker can negotiate safely. It’s a little odd to see, but you’ve got to tip your hat to the lady for making the effort.
