Her resentment may rob her of any happiness she can put together with her mother's memory, may deepen her sense of emptiness. What a conundrum. This is very touching.<br /> Thanks for your comment on my entry today. Always glad to hear from you!<br /><br />..........cjcj Schlottmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217936774632262633noreply@blogger.com
