Donna, take your medication, it helps. It is a mood changer...It works very fast. Get more painkillers for your MOM. Just ask and they will give you what is required. Think POSITIVE..get your game plan together..remember our many emails..read them..Dont think about the negative, this forum will help you get through it. Get the doctors to move faster. I can tell you from experience the waiting hurts. Read the many posts here. These people are here for you..just ask..Every once in awhile these negative issues arise. Keep Positive, you can beat this. As caregivers were all have been there. Turn every negative into a positive..I know you have the strength to get this through. Remind your MOM that she is strong also and she MUST get through it.
Take care, Carol Ann
