I didn't really mind driving her, but it's nice knowing she can drive to & from appointments (PT). Sitting in the parking lot can be a drag. BTW, I took her to Costco twice while she was down. I put her in one of those electric carts & went back to the car to listen to NPR. I'm not a shopper.

So happy she’s able to drive now ! When Steve had gotten so sick a few years ago I wasn’t okay with him driving for right at 9 months. It’s hard to be a full time care giver for pretty much anything !

Here’s hoping you can enjoy the freedom
