Good for you that your Mom is coming to be with you. When I went for our settlement hearing I was a nervous wreak for weeks ahead of time also. One of my best friends took the day off and drove 2 1/2 hours each way to be with me. Even got a laugh because his lawyer yelled at him when he was having a fit over what the Judge thought was reasonable. Hang in there. It's going to be okay in the long run.
