Donna,

Boy was I lucky. My family and friends were all around. I can't even imagine getting thru without them. People are nervous and possibly don't know how to deal with it. You may try calling them and explainng that you know that "they are having a tough time with this" but your Mom really needs everyone to rally here. I would call the "one" that might understand the most, and get them to rally the troops. Bets of luck to you.
