“Well, you were a difficult child - that’s all there is to it,” Mom said.
I remembered all the times my mother ignored me when I needed to talk. “And you were a difficult mother.” With that, I hung up the phone. Again, it was weeks before we spoke.”

“You know, I feel a sense of serenity about my relationship with my mother,” I said.
“I don’t feel angry or bitter. I feel as though, with all the therapy, and with my mother’s many illnesses, I’ve reached a point of forgiveness. It’s a kind of acceptance - peace. I loved her. I remember her hugging me and crying with me when my best friend Judy died. It was a beautiful moment.”

“Following dinner, we tidied up and Mom and Dad went straight to bed at about eight o’clock. The house was dark and spooky on Sunday nights. Dad said he had to go to bed early on Sundays because he had “the yips.” Eventually I took that to mean he was hungover and had to get his sleep to be ready for another week of work.”
