    Hi, what I do is I have a cane holder that is supported by my belt.  If 
I need my cane, I take it out of the holder and unfold it...this is handy as 
you do yard work, working with my dog and I have a question about his 
decision ect.  I hope this helps with an idea.  Andy and Shubert

Hi there,
One of the problems I am having is how to carry the cane when I am not 
needing it, but to have it with me when I do.
This is a walking cane, and it folds up into sections.
That is fine, where it doesn’t with to stay folded in my bag.
I can’t carry much in the heavy way of carrying.
If anyone has tips that would help let me know.
I can put the cane in a carry on bag, where when traveling if you wish to go 
somewhere, it is hard to know what to choose,
Yes my balance is better with I have support on both sides in an area I don’t 
know for sure.
