A Mother Speaks, A Daughter Listens: Journeying Together Through Dementia - Paperback

by Felicia Mitchell (Author)

In Felicia Mitchell's moving and insightful poetry collection, A Mother Speaks, A Daughter Listens, we're invited to share one mother-daughter dementia journey from the early days of a woman's life through years in a nursing home and also the emotional transformations that continue after a loved one's death. These poems, some created from the mother's words and all from the daughter's heart, invite us to see Mitchell's mother Audrey as a complete, albeit changed, woman at the close of her life-and also how the depth and complexity of Mitchell's love for her is enriched by understanding what remains, and remains transformative, even as a brain changes.
