I don't know if this has been mentioned, but with our area's National MS Society's office each person with MS has $500 to spend yearly. This allows for rides to and from doctors, etc.
Our small town does not have public transportation or taxis. My significant other takes me to the grocery store to pick up prescriptions or shop. Too, he does the shopping.
I quit driving in '92 when my 5 year old child had to tell me when the light was red or green. I would stop in the middle of the road to make a turn and my mind would wonder and others behind me honked their horn to bring me around. Double vision, weak muscles, etc. set in later.
I would hate to kill or hurt another just because I wanted to continue to drive when my doctors agreed with me it was time to quit driving.
