State to state transportation ideas needed for grandmom

Jackie, on March 12, 2020 at 8:11 AM Posted in Planning 0 8

Recommendations for private transportation/driver for out of state travel.


This is for my grandmom Who is elderly and cannot drive..

My date is April 15,2020.

We are running out of time to figure out how I’m gonna get my grandmom to North Carolina from New Jersey. We were hoping that her sisters or some of her family would be attending but nobody from my side of the family is attending so my grandma would be the only one, and she’s very Special to me she’s been a mother in my entire life so having her there is a MUST.

I have already asked everybody that’s attending our allotment which is like 12 people if they would be willing to take my grandmom down and they said no.

So my only thought or idea that I have left is getting like a private transportation or private driver to either bring her down and take her back or I bring her down the day when I go down to North Carolina the day before our wedding date .and then get someone to private transportation her back.

Please help!!

    Oh my. .... nobody has a seat that she can ride with them. How old is your grandmother?????????
    Is it best for her to not fly due to the virus?

    Can you take off some time the weekend (or a few) before and drive up to get her and drive back since it's under a 12 hour drive? Then you can take it slow, take breaks & stop when she needs, etc.

    Well we are all from NJ . We had planned on doing some honeymoon stuff afterwards in NC or TN from Thursday, the day after the wedding until Sunday.

    Yeah flying out of the question. We have asked everyone , but they are also staying til sunday. So from thirsday(the day after til Sunday) I don’t know what she would do . No one is willing to stay with her in the time being.

    Pretty much.
    Everyone I guess is Staying a few days after our wedding.
    And I had planned on her starting just till the day after. No one will look after her till they drive back Sunday.And I don’t want to make my grandmom feel like a burden.She has dementia and has to be on oxygen.

    Does she have a caregiver that can attend with her? I guess I'm surprised none of her relatives are offering to help at all.
