Tuesday 2nd February was the first day I have been permitted to drive since I had my heart attack.
For the preceding fortnight Wendy or others had to drive me to everywhere I wanted or needed to go.
During this time I was very grateful that I had those around me who were able to be my chauffeurs. I was able to go to the HMCCQ event at Samford thanks to Richard Napier and to attend church each Sunday thanks to Natalie.
But simply driving my daughter Rosie to the gym on Tuesday morning, several other excursions during the day, and a trip to the HMCCQ meeting at Kallangur Tuesday night all brought back into focus what a marvellous freedom in life is gained by having a driver’s licence!
And it felt so good not to feel like I was overworking Wendy through all this experience.
I haven’t taken out my motorbike yet, but I know I can if I want to!
It all feels good!
This was taken a few days after my heart attack.
I suppose it’s not only a joy to drive on the roads, it’s a joy indeed to be alive!
