CAREGIVER'S CORNER NO. 5

WOW! Carrie had a great day yesterday! I had an appointment with a pain management physician at the same time our old dog Jake needed to go see the dog ophthalmologist whose office is about 25 miles from our home. Although she has been driving, it has been mostly around the neighborhood and maybe to Manassas. Yesterday was a real challenge for her and she did it without a hitch! You cannot imagine how proud I am of her--she had really been hesitant about doing it, but she mustered up the "stuff" and did it. This may open up a whole new world for her.

Go back and read what I had to say at Caregiver No. 3 about driving after a brain attack--you will see that she has leaped a BIG hurdle with this most recent trip.
