   <p><br/>Kat, I put streamers, a headlight, cell phone mount and of course an external speaker on the one i have to use occasionally. You should see the flame decals i put on the bars and the awesome battery operated horn that Sheryl just loves. <br/><br/><br/>I wonder, where that walker went anyway? Hmm I better ask her, I mean in case I need it. I wonder where that could be? It seems to have disappeared right after I put the ooga horn on it. Here is a video of one that was put on a car. Mine is a little louder I think <br/><br/><br/>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_NyXuQ_jJY<br/><br/><br/><br/></p>

      <p><inline-mention username="Kat Elton" user-id="3188345"/> Oh you need to try it out. But be sure you get one loud enough to wake up all the neighbors. Otherwise why even bother? &#128512; </p>

   <p>I purchased a flashlight with a clamp and put on my 4 wheel Walker! Very handy, always there. I’ve used all the walkers discussed, including the high rise type. The 4 wheel is my favorite of all of them, the only one I haven’t tripped or fallen with. </p>

   <p>I wish I saw this when I had my knee replacement 5 years ago- super helpful. I also put tennis balls on the bottom of all four legs, and got these little sherpa cushions to put around the handles. I do love those arm attachments you have! This looks so much easier to use when you need to get out and walk. Bookmarking this! Thanks, Kat. -Effie, team member</p>
