Sorry about the news of your Mom.
I hope you find a way to be with her, and share her last days together. I left my driving job to spend the final days with my Mom. She also was 81. regards, roadhog

I Do Appreciate Your,
Condolences RoaDHog, My MoM has been through A lot with Her Battle with this Dreadful Disease, I Live with my Wife & Son in N.Y State & it's A Ways off To Utah and I thought I would even try to Hitch Hike or go to the Truck Stop in Belmont on I-86 & see if someone might give me a Partial ride there, But I do know how people ARE this Day in Age. There Leary to help others, which I can say I do not blame People for being cautious. I 'm A Driver with current NYS CDL-A & current Med Card & I was one that thought it would never happen to my parent's or family,Either! but It did ! So anyone going West OR know Of someone Going WEST :arrow: IN the next few Day's or so your consideration Would be Appreciated THX Jon. :arrow:

If money is an issue try contacting places like the Salvation Army, Catholic charities, etc. They may be able to help with travel expenses.

I would Like To,
Thank's RoadHog, UTurn2001 & BanditsCousin for your concern, consideration & Suggestions. one of my current concerns is money due to the fact I'm not Driving @ the moment, But I do have resources & my son is now out of School for Summer. It may not sound logical But It Does cost more to take care of kids in the Summer,entertainment ETC-ETC, Summer clothes & more food & on & On, for growing kid's. & I don't know how long I will be needed to assist my Parent. & to what degree, she may need Me! I did not wan't to resort to asking a Charity for Help, but it is a thought.I'm Heading to S.L.C, Ut. it is my Mom's homebase.Most of My Funds I need to make available for my Wife & Son to live on, if I need to be there long term I'll try to find A local job or what not there in Salt Lake @ some point! And Thanks again, I do appreciate It! 8)
