No car

Ugh I had the freedom of coming and going, all of a sudden....poof....no driving. My family made me return the plates of my car. It was a sad day. No I feel like such a burden to family and friends. I know they want to help me but most of the time I say no thank you. I want my freedom back! How do you deal with not being able to drive?

  1. My doctor and family sat down with me about 5 years ago and we made the decision together that it was time for me to stop driving. I had had a seizure while I was driving and luckily enough I had the enough sense to drive off the road and pull into a ditch before it got bad so I wouldn’t hurt anyone else on the highway. I gave my car to my daughter and never renewed my license again. Yes I hate the fact that I can’t drive anymore but that experience made me understand that I could have possibly hurt myself or someone else and before that I hadn’t had a seizure while driving but just maybe just it could happen again and I was never going to take that chance and what if I had my grandkids with me I could have killed them so no from that day forward I have never driven anywhere.

  2. I lost my license here in CA 12 years. Two accidents. I'm 56. My family helps with Doctors appointments.

  3. I have the grandma conversion Caesars and partial and Caesar
