Oh Donna - I'm so sorry about your Mom's difficulties and I do remember your posting about her difficulty swallowing. I know it's scary but you won't know for sure until you see the RO and you said that was today. You've been so strong already, so if you haven't left already for the RO, just write down what questions you can think of and tell him how you are feeling, too. If you can have someone else go with you and your Mom, it might help lessen the anxiety. I will be with you in spirit, Donna - and sending positive vibes your way. Please let us know how it goes.
