I am very sorry that you lost your mother, and bless her for what she had to go through. Some of what you wrote though needs a little more explanation.
When did your mother have the surgery? Did she investigate the surgeon's expertise before choosing him/her? Where did you find your information about 90% of GBS patients having liver or kidney problems?

I sympathize with you, I really do...but I know I did the right thing and that it WAS a last resort for me.

as far as her doing her research on her surgeon. I don't know his name but she did fly from NC to NYC to get the initial surgery done so I am assuming she had "shopped around" i guess you can say.
