Living with Bob and Al

Sheri is remembering
the last time her parents visited in 2008
and how strange Bob's behavior was

Certainly she should have seen something was wrong.
The family drove to the airport to drop off her son
Right after exiting the airport
They hear a very loud noise coming from their van
Smoke, screaching, burning smell, something falls off into the street.

(Mind you her 70 year old parents are in the van...as well as her two daughters)

Sheri tells Bob to pull off the road
They get out to look, Sheri doesn't know what the part is

But she knows enough to know that
 based on the size of the part... they probably should not
continue to drive the van the rest of the 30 some odd miles back home that way.

Well Bob and Al had a different take on the situation
"They" decided that if they went really slow and took all
the back roads they could get the van home
(Afterall,  it was just a little smoke he said)

And against Sheri's advice "they" proceed to do just that
A few second's in and another part falls off of the underside of the van
Sheri has to beg Bob to get the car off of the road to a gas station
"Al" kept insisting they would be fine and that the radiator just needed water

It took Sheri in tears and her Dad's persistence to get the him to pull off the road.

About a month later the diagnois came, with that the neuro psych tests showed that
Bob was losing new information in about 30 seconds...
Judgment highly impaired.
Sheri should have known
That was the end of the van, and the end of Bob's driving.

Proverbs 4:6-7


Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding
