Realizing her son may never have an opportunity to
get his driver's license, something he's told her he is anticipating, Cyndie
defies the rules and lets 11-year-old Derek drive up and down their street in
West Sacramento while sitting on her lap. Cyndie is determined to give him
moments of joy whenever possible. On the same day, Feb. 9, 2006, Cyndie met
for the first time with hospice workers, and learns there is little time left
for Derek to live.
