Well as you all noticed
I didn't do a post yesterday, I was just in a slump yesterday I felt
really down the reason was because yesterday morning after dropping
Leo off at school I had to see my GP to get my yearly medical form
filled in so I can continue to drive.
Well he wouldn't fill
it in saying I really shouldn't be driving so that left me feeling
depressed, Tim and some other family members say it will be ok that
either Tim or Tasha will drive me around. I wonder how long it will
take till they start complaining about driving me places.
I go to my aqua class
twice a week and to Charlestown Square once a week, Natasha had
already said she will take Leo to and from school but next year
Natasha wants to do a course at Glendale Tafe she wants to get
qualified in home care to enable her to be better able to care for
me.
This morning Leo said
when I drove him to school, why can't I drive him and just not tell
anyone. I had to explain to him that isn't possible.
I don't know why but
last night when I went to bed I felt like I couldn't breath when I
laid down this frightened Leo and he got Tasha who came and checked
my BGL it was good but I was sweating even though it was cold so she
turned the air con on in the bedroom and helped me get my Cpap mask
on and told me to concentrate on my breathing.
I did manage to go to
sleep but I had a restless night waking a lot, I hope I sleep better
tonight.
Hi Jo-Anne - sorry about this ... so difficult for you all - good luck at sorting things out ... take care - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteWhy no driving? I hope you feel better today.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to read you are not permitted to drive anymore - probably for the best Jo-Anne, but I reckon you feel as if your independence has been taken away.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, take care and I do hope you get a nice sleep tonight.
Hard to give up your independence, but sounds like iy is for the best. You don't want to be a danger to yourself or others.
ReplyDeleteYou're lucky you have people who want to help. I hope your breathing is better now.
Awww Jo-Anne, I am sorry. It was hard when my Mother-in Law had to stop driving. I hope you feel better and that your family can drive you without complaining.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Joanne
Sorry to hear this.
ReplyDeleteI would be down too. I was climbing the walls after my surgery when I couldn’t drive for two weeks.
ReplyDeleteTake care of yourself. How old is Leo. He would probably love to drive you around.

On the one hand, I am amazed you have to get driving privaledges from your GP, but it is a good idea. Here, we'd be better if it had to be approved by the Police chief...
ReplyDeleteHilary...........It will take some getting use to
ReplyDeleteChatty............Because my reaction time is slow and my concentration poor
Margaret..........Yes that is how I feel and I wonder how I am going to get places
Rita..............I know it is for the best but how am I to get to my aqua class and over to my mums early on Tuesday morning
Joanne............Yeah I can see my family complaining about driving me places
