Your mother was onto something. Even hospitals join in her warning! I got the post op instructions in the mail yesterday. Among them was, "Make arrangements for transportation to and from surgery. No Taxis or Ubers."
"Huh? The reasoning apparently applies to the state of the patient on discharge. If you are still a little out of it, either driver, either sex, may take advantage of you. Our mothers could speculate on exactly what they are capable of and wring their hands nd moan but all we have to remember is, "Don't get into cars with strangers!"
Uber and cab owners might join together to promote a specific service for surgery transport - and recoup a certain loss of income due to cynical staff at the hospital.
