I haven't smelled it for so long, not since mom completed her tx's. I feel like I am coming undone, the fear that is boilng up inside is overwhelming. I asked her when she sees her RO next and she said May. I am so shook up, I can't think straight. She has been going for her check ups and thus far has faired well. This smell...do you know what I am talking about? What should I do? I don't want to freak her out but I think the RO needs to be contacted. I can't believe how out of control I feel inside. I haven't been this frightened in a while--well, not since November when Jackie had her tonsils removed and I knew that they would be biopsied. or when Jerry, yes, our Jerry, used the veloscope on me, I don't think I have ever been so quiet! Any advice would be so welcome. Thanks. Donna
