I just had a big dose of reality this weekend. My mom was visiting my city and she passed out at the theater and was taken to a hospital. Nothing was really wrong, but she was having some medication issues. The BIG realization for me was she is having significant memory problems.

I have decided to step up and help my mom and dad through this by being an advocate for her while she visits her doctor. She loves her doctor, a general practioner, but I want her to see a geriatric specialist and a nureopsychologist. My mom and dad said I certainly could go with, but I don't want to take away their power either.

Any suggestions, thoughts, etc?

Thanks. Ann
