Every year on January 17 since 1983 I celebrate the birthday of my best friend. He was taken from us when he was 27 years old. RIP Andy the pain of your passing has not ceased even 32 years later. This years day had to be shared with the devastating news that was waiting for me as I arrived home at 1:30 am from and amazing night with family and home group members. As I opened the envelope I just knew that it was not going to be good news. Then when reading the results I was floored by what I was reading. I have been trying to again get my commercial truck driving license after it was removed 28 years ago when I developed diabetes. The laws changed and there was a chance that if my diabetes is controlled I could again drive truck. At this point I my life my diabetes is controlled better than anytime since I was diagnosed. This is a good thing because I havent had any good employment since the cutbacks at NRCAN found me unemployed. Even though the doctors and specialists have reported that I surpass all the requirements to obtain a commercial driving license the Ministry of Transportation have disallowed my application even though I have gone to a truck driving school and have surpassed all the requirements there. Ok, acceptance is the pathway to serenity and I should move on and get different work, right. Sure I know this and it is time to go to plan B. And this is where the life as I know it devastation happened. The letter from the Ministry tells me that I do not meet the requirements to retain any drivers license at all. As of yesterday I have to surrender my license to them and not to get behind the the wheel of my car or my motorcycle. For those that dont know, I live 10km outside of a small town and even if I could find a job as of yesterday I could not get to the job. The light at the end of the tunnel just went out and I do not know what to do or where to turn. Please pray for Libby and me. This is just not going to end well. If anyone knows of anything I might be able to do at home please let me know. I have run out of options.
