Medical Honesty, Driving, and the Fear of Losing Independence

Episode Artwork

A new episode of A Body Rebels: A Chronic Illness Podcast is now available.

In this episode, I talk about a driver’s license renewal that turned into an unexpected panic at the DMV. One question on one form forced me to think about my AICD, heart medication, and the fear of losing the independence I count on every day. I’m looking at medical honesty, the cost of disclosure, and what happens when protecting my health suddenly feels tangled up with protecting my freedom.

This podcast is narrated using an AI voice. The words, reflections, and lived experience are my own.
