I would appreciate any experience anyone has had with a similar situation.
Elderly woman with very short bk, can't tolerate load on limb and takes all
weight through a thigh lacer. Experiencing knee instability on uneven
terrain that has caused her to fall. I am considering KAFO joints so she
can lock to walk and unlock to sit.
