0803 a step in the wrong direction

We realized yesterday that in order for me to learn to walk again, I will need the assistance of two people instead of just one. That's because of the oxygen tank (see pic) that I need to be connected to. Before, I would have both of my hands on my walker and my caregiver would walk behind me with both of his hands on my gait belt, in case I lose my balance and start to fall. The problem now is that he needs a third hand to pull the O2 tank behind us while we walk.

So we tried it this morning with my father providing the extra hand, just walking around the back driveway. It worked out just fine, but now this limits my ability to get the exercise needed to regain strength in my right leg.

My friend, Jim Y, offered to assist me with walking on the weekends. But we've now put that on hold since we cannot find a third person to join us for the O2 tank. If you're available, even for just an hour or two, let me know. I can use all the help I can get.
