[quote=Anonymous]I understand, OP. My mom is 74 and in good health aside from the usual aches and pains that come with aging. She won't drive the 4 hours from NJ to VA because she has never driven long distances alone. When she and my dad were married, my dad drove whenever we went on trips. They divorced a long time ago and she has been seeing a very nice man who has his own family and hobbies so he is not always available to drive her down. We used to pay for her to take the train but ever since those train derailments made the news she is terrified of trains. We try to get up to NJ as often as we can but she lives in a tiny senior's apartment with no room for 4 overnight guests. I keep telling her she can come down to see us anytime but she is dependent on her man friend to drive her. We'd love to see her more often but we've had to just make the most of the visits we do have. It's hard. [/quote]
