Lisah....
As a caretaker for a parent suffering from this, they really think they can drive because they seem to remember driving just the other day, even though they have not had a license or driven in 5 years. We have to hide the keys, keep doors locked and sometimes trick them by leaving out a key that does not work. Sometimes someone forgets to lock a door or does not hide the keys well enough and the parent finds them and cannot remember that they no longer drive.
You must not be too
You must not be too sympathetic if your are asking a question like that. You do not know their situation or the events that led up to this. How about we just pray for the family and hope for the best.
As sympathetic as I am to
As sympathetic as I am to the families in these situations, why was he allowed to drive?
