Kate, what a great list, neat ideas, thank you! For #11's "A drive anywhere you want," readers can even consider a new service, a chauffeur driving the senior's car (or an Avis rental car if desired). It's only $35.65/hour and nice for family holidays, medical appointments, outings with friends, etc. The nice thing is chauffeurs can also be a concierge to help at the grocery store. The concept was featured on this Rachael Ray Show segment on Senior Driving: http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/show/segments/view/senior-driving/
Hi Kate, thanks for the great post. For more gift ideas for seniors with vision loss, take a look at the American Foundation for the Blind's new Holiday Guide at www.afb.org/seniorsite/holidayguide. Happy holidays!
