PH and Driving

I haven't driven much since I have been on my wheelchair. If I do go somewhere I need to have someone put up my wheelie and someone to get it down for me once I'm at my destination. So if I have no one I don't drive anywhere.

Well, today I had an appt. to go get my license renewed. I was just going to go get fingerprinted and have an eye test. YIKES! I was so scared that I wasn't going to pass my eye test. I know I need glasses. But my COBRA Ins is messed up right now so I have no dental and vision.

So there I went to my appt. My husband took me. I almost didn't pass it. My right eye doesn't see very well and the letters where blurry. I DMV guy asked me if I was having trouble with my right eye and I answered a little bit. He asked me to go around the corner to this eye machine and he had me read the letters. At one point I had to squint in order to see the letters but... I passed it!

Now what is the point or big deal of having a driver's license if I do not drive? Well... you see I feel a little bit less disabled if I do have one. And I feel that PH has not completely won! I hope that some day I will be able to drive again like I used to. I hope that some day I will not have to count on anyone for help and I hope that day will come soon. PH will not take certain things away from me.

That's why my license is important to me :)

Have a great day
