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. I’ve accepted it and just go Yes dear, and just get in the car and let him drive.

  2. 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.

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

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