Mother just starting treatment but care options are an issue

@cmerritt1351, I hear the anguish in your message. I hope you saw the caring and helpful posts from @gardenlady1116 and @patientone.
In addition, I have a couple of thoughts to try if you haven't already. Not sure these are options for you.
Contact Patient Relations at the University of Maryland (sometimes called Office of Patient Experience) to discuss your concerns about her care.
Might you transfer your mother's care to another facility closer to you? Might Mayo Clinic be an option?

Thank you for the suggestions. Unfortunately, today, my mother passed from compounding complications after treatment. She was with us 77 years. I was very lucky for that. Thank you all for your compassion.
