I just got back from an appointment with my neurologist and while I am at least a little bit reluctant to celebrate too soon, I believe that I am finally being released from a suspension on my driver's license that has lasted most of this past year.
The suspension is due to the fact that I have epilepsy and that two years ago on a lovely fall afternoon - an afternoon almost like this one actually - I had a seizure while working in the Petaluma library. I wound up in the Petaluma Valley Hospital and after several hours of lying around doing nothing I had to call a friend of mine to pick me up.
Shortly thereafter I was informed that the DMV was once again watching me and subsequently when I didn't follow up on one of my check ups last year... bang zowie... no license.
Getting a new doctor (my previous doctor left practice early this year), getting my blood tests done, and getting the papers filed to get my license back has been one of my primary goals for this 40 Days.
Today I did it. Now, though there's no reason to think that DMV will present a problem, I am nonetheless holding my breath until the final notice comes in the mail and I am free once more.
The rest of the day has been relatively chaotic and frustrating... but hey... thank goodness for small victories.
