Read your post and just felt furious. Next time tell the guy that he is not working at a vet clinic - he is dealing with HUMANS and that is what he is paid to do.

I will join the chorus and encourage your mom to take whatever medication makes life a bit easier. The last martyr I heard of got burned at the stake so that is not a good course to follow!

Thanks for the updates - think of you all often.
