You're my idol.

Live by O'Hare in Chicago? Its like Nascar here... I've never driven there prestroke and won't even think of it poststroke. I also have never driven into Chicago, pre or post. Now I have a bad case of vertigo. Don't touch overpasses during the day. Weird at night when I can't see down below then I can do it but my hands still get sweaty. I fear I'll go off the sides. When in reahab, the therapist only worked me on the down escalator not the up. Then when with hubbie went up a steep escalator and I almost had a heartattack on the spot. It was glass sided escaltor to made matters worse. I've notice any emotions were down to zip and some have gotten better but I'm like you I like my "routes", I get anxiety on roads I haven't driven in a while or never before. I'm so proud for you...know where you're coming from... :Clap-Hands: :Clap-Hands: :Clap-Hands: :beer: :cheer:

I live by O'Hare (20 minutes away) and I would certainly not drive there. It is possible to get there not on the expressway (I don't do expressways), but the chaos of O'Hare is not for me. Prestroke no problem.

When anyone from here needs to go to the airport or back my response is "Take a cab." I have offered to drive to the Rosemont el stop which is the first stop after O'Hare. So far all have said they would just take a cab.

Work on your husband gently. How safe is it for you to drive in extra traffic?

hey Amy:

That's wonderful, and be proud your hubby trusted you to do the job, and you did it 2. I m still bounded by hubby of not driving alone, he says me and our kido r more precious to him than anything else so don't want to jeopardize it anymore(big excuse :big_grin: )

I m so proud of you, you are my role modal in driving

Our capital city airport is nothing compared to O'Hare(sp). It's teeny tiny compared to it probably. I don't fly so all is new to me.
