Quilting brings calm

Who is going to purchase the ticket for them? Who is going to drive them to the airport and walk them through srcurity? If they can’t buy the ticket on their own, and no one helps them, then they can’t go. If their driver’s license is exiled and they do r have the other documentation that the TSA requires, then they can’t go.

In other words, the easiest way to keep the trip from happening is to not provide any assistance in making the trip arrangements.

I understand that you are getting fatigued making excuses but just try to stay calm and don’t help your parent. Does she still have access to a credit card? Cancel it. She can’t make a purchase if the card won’t work. Just shrug your shoulders and say you don’t know why it won’t work. Also, just tell her you called the DMV and the information online is incorrect.

Getting a state ID where you live means that she cannot renew her DL in what is now her prior state. She’s established residency in your state. In order for her to get a DL in her old state, she has to prove residency and take all the tests because she has no valid DL anywhere anymore.

The DMVs had a coordination process where the prior state gets noticed about someone getting an ID/DL in another state.

Merla,

If she has a dementia diagnosis no state will issue or renew a drivers license. Call the Dr and ask if dmv was notified. If not get a copy and send it to dmv yourself.

sorry that I provided incorrect information for California. I’m also in California but my father DL is from Colorado. They said they would not renew with diagnosis.
