Well I talked to my mom's new lawyer yesterday. She said she didn't think anything was going to change as far as my mom's living situation. My mom is going to be so devastated. We are trying to prepare her for the fact that nothing is going to change, but it's going to be hard. My mom is in a sense of denial that she's going to get her license back. I can understand how she feels to some extent, if someone came and took my license away and I thought I could drive just fine, I'd be mad too. It's not only that, it's the money. She doesn't have any control over her finances anymore, which honestly is a good thing, but it's also very hard for her. She went from having total control over her life to having 0 control over her life in a matter of 2 months. That has to be a hard adjustment for anyone, especially my mom, who has been on her own and fiercely independent since my father passed away.
I really want to be there, but financially, it's just not an option for us right now, so my husband is going to fly down to be with her. I talked to my Uncle yesterday too, and he said he'd be there. I do feel better knowing they'll both be there to help her, but I dread what is going to happen in that court room. I really can't even focus right now, she's just on my mind constantly.
