Struggling with Losing Independence Due to Health Issues

Hey all. I’ve been at this health journey for almost a year now and I’ve been coming to terms with the fact that it’s becoming more and more dangerous to drive (myself but others especially as one of my jobs is to drive for the blind). I guess I’m just here to ask how do you deal with losing that independence? I don’t want to give up driving but at the same time with no diagnosis or control when it happens my choices are few. Sending love and healing vibes.

As somebody who is legally blind (typing this with accessibility settings) I have never been able to drive but with losing you're independence note generally you have to just kind of adapt and see what things you still can do independently and focus on doing those things instead.
