re: A family member with dementia and telling them they can't drive

Recently went through this with both parents. Unfortunately for them, they are both mentally sound. Dad can't see well enough to drive any more. Mom was recently diagnosed with tumors in her brain and spine.

Mom has been by far the more difficult case.

It's tough, but it's the right thing to do. I would be nearly inconsolable if someone got hurt because one of them was behind the wheel and caused an accident.
