With incredible sensitivity and humor, D.G. Fulford recounts her own heartwarming story of how, after her father’s death, she returned home to become her mother’s closest companion, the family’s “designated daughter”—a move that brought her more in return than she could ever have expected. D.G.’s 87-year-old mother, Phyllis Greene, adds her remarkable voice, completing each chapter with her perspective. Woven throughout are the stories of other mother/daughter “couples” that, despite many hardships and sacrifices, manage to embrace these bonus years together as an opportunity to celebrate one another’s wisdom and strength. The result is a book that speaks to the joys and privileges of bringing generations together at the end of life—a hopeful message for mothers and their children everywhere.
