Hard as the last two weeks have been, yesterday was another blow - we learn that it has been reccommended for Ron not to drive. I am actually cross about this as I have NEVER felt in ANY way unsafe with him driving - I understand just what a loss this is. There is a faint hope - he's to do a full assessment with Drive Able in Victoria and they'll have the final say, but can't drive till this is done, and it's going to be two months or more till they fit him in.
It's just been so hard to see all this so quickly, his loss of his identity and self esteem with having to stop practising as a doctor, his loss of hope for a wonderful future, his loss of independence now.
I don't actually know what I need you all to say right now, it's just such a help that others have gone this path before me. Sorry for posting again so soon. It's just a rough time right now!
