Mam I am a 25yr otr driver and Educator you can read my bio on here.
I personally think papa needs to pull the brakes and slow the ride down.seems the next hill you come down will be to fast to handle.Why dont he put a driver in seat and be able to stay home more i can help him find a good driver.As a matter of fact call my friend Heather at Truckers Voice tell her Carl (American Trucker) asked you to call.She will help you.You can even look her up on Face Book.
I hope all turns out well for your family.
