I think she has a balance problem and also she is lugging a great deal of weight up those stairs. But who knows. A 68 year old in decent shape shouldn’t struggle up a set of front porch stairs.
At first glance, I thought her assistants were only steadying her, but looking closer, it appears as if she is holding on tightly and they are more or less dragging her butt up those stairs.
Maybe it’s just an overabundance of caution because she is so accident prone.
My mother is 72, and still works full time as a nurse.Wound care nurse that is, so she sees nothing but the yummy stuff. On the weekend she has an antique shop, and is on the move the whole time.
I think we should be concerned for the person who took that picture. His bureau chief is probably ordering him to cover events in Syria or Somalia this second if he is able to avoid a bout of Arkancide.
My wife is 66 and is currently about 35 minutes into her daily hour on the treadmill - 4 MPH and not breathing hard.
Hope she isn’t accident prone when she gets her paws on the nuclear football!
