This week on the Aging Today podcast, I interviewed Laura Davis, author, and writing teacher. Laura relates the riveting story of her embattled relationship with a mother she loved. In The Burning Light of Two Stars: A Mother-Daughter Story, Laura tells the story of her mother, Temme, who moved across the country to entrust her daughter with the rest of her life. She brings a faltering mind, a fierce need for independence, and the seeds of a second war between them.
As the stresses of caregiving rekindle Laura's rage over past betrayals, they threaten her intention to love her mother, finally, "without reservation." AgingToday.us
