Patty,
It's me again. After I responded to your last message I wanted to find your story and it didn't take me long. I was wondering how you made out today with your mother. Isn't waiting awful. It seems like you hear the bad news and then you have to wait to see what's next. I hope your Mom is doing ok. I will respond on a regular basis if you just want to chat. My husband will be having surgery hopefully this month, that is really the only time I may be away from my computer. It always helps to talk to someone who knows what you're going through. If I can help please let me.
