My husband is scheduled for next week for his evaluation. I feel like this is real progress in this battle. He is not happy about it but he is not fighting it either. I will still drive with him short distances but my children will not especially with the grandchild. We had a family intervention about driving prior to our family vacation. He was resistant then but my daughter said it was still good we did it and she is correct I believe. Moved the needle a bit further in the process. After the evaluation I’ll post the results. Hang in there comrades!!! 😘

Oh and yes his neurologist provided a prescription/order for the driving evaluation and she got in his face about it 🤣 and she said “Its the law with a MCI diagnosis” and she brought it up on her computer screen and printed it out and provided a list of certified Driving rehab specialists.

So exciting, except for your husband! It is a big step forward for all of you and such a relief not to worry about his driving any more!
My husband has suddenly told me he doesn’t want to lose his license and is trying to make me believe he has no problem. I am slowing down making the appointment for the test and I am doing all the driving - although under duress because of his yelling at me for every move I make while driving!
Waiting to hear about the results of your husband’s driving test!
