After 15 years of driving, I am finally getting my learners permit! The hand controls were installed in the car on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Wednesday I went to the DMV to get my learners permit. It is good for 20 days. I was very fortunate that I could get right into the OT driving instructor. I will see her on Monday.
My hope is that she will say that I am roadworthy and ready to get my regular license. I’ve been practicing and practicing. I really have to pay attention especially when I go from reverse to drive or vice versa. Since my hand control is on the right side, and I push for the break and pull for the accelerator, it is a similar action of the gearshift. One time I thought I was moving the gearshift, but I was actually accelerating. It was actually pretty scary!
A very interesting consequence happened today after I drove for quite a while. I could hardly hold a pencil or pen in my right hand. It had fatigued that much.
So prayers at 10:30 on Monday Eastern standard time would be appreciated! Thank you all and have a great weekend!
thanks for the update, i’d been wondering about the state of your new driving situation…sounds like you’re moving right along. prayers are slated for monday!

Praying for you now that God would surround you with his angels, to help you drive. Also for God’s grace and favor during the drive with the instructor. No fatigue but supernatural alertness.
