I never learned to drive and have recently discovered I need to, in order to be the parent I'd like to be. I feel quite terrified of being in control of something so powerful, and have vowed to be such a slow and careful driver that I frustrate everyone [reckless] around me. I won't care.
Thank you for sharing this authentic description of loss and grief. I'm so sorry this happened to you and your siblings. Thinking of you today and sending love!❤️
Oh Clare, my heart aches for you. I am one of those who holds the anxiety awareness every time I step into a car that I am holding my life and the lives of those I care for in my hands (partly because I drive only occasionally, and partly because I had a car accident a decade ago that could have gone much worse), but I can only imagine how that fear must be magnified by the loss you’ve experienced. Sending you so much love on this difficult day.
I'm so sorry that you had to experience this ❤️

Big hugs for today Clare!
This is so heartbreaking, Clare. I’m so sorry too. Thank you for sharing your experience.
And thank you for this reminder to be absolutely present when we are in the driver’s seat. It is a huge responsibility.
I'm so sorry you had to experience the tragic loss of your mom. Sending you lots of mom hugs today. <3
