Difference in rows in straight table

My client has provided me with a qvd that contains the mm/yy along with totals in several columns.  One column is new patients for example.   Each of the columns is the running total for 18 months for that metric.  I have none of the raw data that was used to arrive at these totals.  

I need to calculate the difference between the current row and the one prior to it for each row.

For example:

Period          Total           Difference

09/2019        4000              0

10/2019        4578             578

11/2019        4300             -278

I hope this makes sense and it is not a stupid question.  Just not getting it today.  Thanks

Peek('Total',-1)-Total as Difference
from Table;
