Kathy, I'm sorry but I have to agree with Mag about your agency not wanting
to have their people drive you around anymore mainly because if you would
have killed the driver and yourself, the agency might be expected to pay
something to the family of the employee. Most agencies don't have that kind
of money, so they don't want to take their chances, especially driving
somebody who behaves like how you did. But however, can you get on some
medication to help control your thinking and behaviors.
Thanks,
Anthony

they have 24 hour care... That is the case in several people I know of.
They
have paid roommates who stay with them at night, then they get other
people
in the day.
Well, Kathy Jo, I certainly understand the fear of the driver. You could
have
killed a lot of people, not just yourself! now to find ways of getting
around -- how about taking the public bus, or paratransit, or
walking/riding
your chair where ever?
