I suspect for my mom there’s an element of fear behind it that if she “gives in” to help, walkers or people, then it’s all downhill from there. I try to remember it’s not about stubbornness so much as not wanting to lose control. I have to admire that she’s willing to stay in the fight as long as possible.
