a leg comprising a first section operably coupled to a second section; and
a cradle attached to the second section of the leg for supporting the forearm and elbow of a user, the cradle comprising an elbow end comprising an elbow cup and a wrist end spatially separated from the elbow end thereby defining a cradle length;
wherein:
the cradle is selectively adjustable between a walking position and a non-walking position; and
in the walking position, the cradle is angled about 5 to about 50 degrees relative to vertical; wherein,

the cradle is attached to the leg at the elbow end, and a portion of the length of the cradle between the elbow end and the wrist end rests substantially adjacent the leg in the walking position, the elbow end of the cradle extending beyond an end of the leg, and
the second section of the leg is configured to selectively decouple from the first section of the leg and rotate about a pivot point at a top end of the first section such that an arm-receiving surface of the cradle defined by the length thereof rests substantially adjacent the first section, whereby the forearm crutch is reconfigured for use as a cane.
