Yes, and that is valid. You are doing a good thing keeping that teuck running. And your roommate is doing a good thing driving his sister.
But your roommate is disabled in a way that they can drive. Some are disabled in a way that they cannot drive (say, blind) and are therefore unable to drive at all.
Perhaps your roommate’s sister is disabled in a way she can’t drive? In this case, how much easier would your roommate, and your (the mechanic’s) lives be, not keeping that truck alive? If there were good transportation alternatives, of the ability to use closer clinics; it could be your reality.
Roommate has COPD, a bad shoulder, and the start of a cataract in his left eye. But he’s still fully capable of driving.
His sister already had a double lung transplant, and she’s suffering from arthritis, to the point she can’t even take care of her own hair or hygiene…
I worry every time he drives away without me, as the truck only properly seats two. Me, roommate, his sister, and our dog equals 4…
At least the truck seems to be running well, but it still worries me every time he’s gotta drive far without me. If only their healthcare services were available within a sensible distance…
