Ronda finds the loss of driving very difficult.

Written testimony

And I came home and yeah, it was very difficult to accept what was happening, what had happened. Although I was grateful to be here and be alive, it was a new life, and it was not one that I had hoped for. The no driving is very difficult. I ended up not being able to drive for a total of 11 months, because six months after my initial cardiac arrest, that was in February, so six months after that, I was able to drive, but I had a shock in May and then, so that added six months again. And then I had one in July, so that was another six months. So that was a tough year for me, 2014. And, but once I got my driver’s license back, and I could drive again and I got off some medications, I started feeling a lot better and more hopeful.
