Change provisions on driver license photos for people undergoing cancer treatments. Allow them to use previous photo

My father was diagnosed with cancer in Dec of '14. While undergoing greuling chemotherapy he had to renew his drivers license. He was told he had to take a new picture. My father, who is far from a vain man, asked if he could use his previous picture-he was denied. Why are motor vehicle agencies tormenting people who are undergoing cancer treatments! Cancer already strips away everything from them during treatment-why their dignity too? Why do they have to have their in-treatment picture on their licenses? Giving them the opportunity to use their previous picture actually gives them a small victory in the battle in which they are enduring. Let them have their dignity & the picture of whom they are on the inside, so that they may save the "fight" for something much more important--RECOVERY
