Anna, how far away is she located? It sounds like having someone able-bodied close to her would be of great value to her, not because she is not "independent" but because she is in a time of needing help. Fierce independence can only go so far, ya know.

I concur that you have to add to the pressure on the pros to do their job right with the best data they can find.

Most important, be ready to communicate at any time, no matter what.

We are with you all the way, Anna.
