Abstract
A strong, light weight walking aid with optional seat that can be used to assist a person in walking and resting on the walking aid. The walking aid collapses so that it can be stored in a small space and the handle can be removed and reattached to make it even smaller. The walking aid is constructed of a double tube aluminum frame to make it strong without adding excess weight. It is provided with a padded, sure-grip handle and can be provided with braking mechanisms on some or all of the wheels.
