Well this sounds humbling, for sure! My mom is 80 and she still lives and drives quite independently in Alabama where she lives alone (also quite far away from her children). That said, she's healthy and thankfully has always run circles around all of us. I feel very safe in a car with her. I share this not to make you feel bad, but to say that just like cancer, every person's experience is different, and you alone must decide what you are capable of (or not). While I completely understand the concerns of your son, and may well be there one day myself, I can also understand your desire to maintain your independence and "freedom" for as long as you can. Especially given what you've been though in recent years! When you live in the big city - Uber is always an option - in rural America - not so much. I don't have any answers just reassurances that you and Maria together can decide what works for you and doesn't. Beyond that, sure, maybe driving in the "big city" in the US at your son's house isn't ideal this time around. I have to admit, at 56, I would even have trepidation driving in big city traffic today, even though we lived in a high-traffic city up until a few years ago. It is very nerve racking even for those of us who are not octogenarians! Wishing you a terrific trip! 💙
