Tobe, Did you know that you can have "hand controls" put on your car? It would definitely be a wild ride if I ever tried it....I also can't feel my feet nor do I know where they are unless I'm looking right at them. One of the reasons that I now hate the dark. I certainly feel lots of pain but that's about it. I had hand controls put on my car and it sure made my life so much better. In some states you can get some help paying for it. Tho I was not able to get it here in Virginia. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with this? I think if you type in hand controls for the handicapped you might find a list in New York. If you're interested let me know and I'll help you find some info on it. Have a great Thanksgiving Trudy
