Without My Best Friend is a short story that spans a lifetime. It summarizes a lifelong relationship between mother and daughter that became strained during a time in their lives when Mom needed care. Remembering precious moments of years gone by helps during the hard times, as well as facing current life changes, and the struggles they bring. Whether you are a caregiver, daughter, or both, life changes can put a strain on a relationship. But where there is love and friendship, all else is pushed away. In this story, the hope is to give comfort to all who care for our elders in their time of need. Caring for someone can be very difficult. When the one in need is a parent, it is even harder as we watch our loved one wither away. Without My Best Friend helps find the light at the end of the tunnel and hope that is not always visible.
