I want Echo to work as a bedside alarm clock for my frail mum who's got memory problems and dementia. She can't tell what time she is getting up at.
I would like to set an alarm for 8am. At 6am, when Echo is prompted it would say "It is 2 hours until the alarm wake up time".
Similarly, could Echo say at 9am: "The alarm wake up time was one hour ago" ?

Alexa will tell the time remaining until a timer elapses. For instance,
You: "Alexa, check my timer."
Alexa: "You have one timer with about 4 minutes remaining."
But for alarms she can only list their settings.
You: "Alexa, check my alarm."
Alexa: "You have one alarm set for seven AM every weekday."
