So sorry to hear your Mum is going through a tough time at the moment and thus, so are you.

Is there any way you can go to appointments with her. If you can, take a note book with you and write down as much as you can while there. There is alot to take in and you are so overwhelmed with what you are being told that writing it down helps later.

Don't google to much as most stories reported are bad news ones. The good results ones are often not reported.
