This work is a heartbreaking read. The author recasts the many years spent caring for her ill mother into a literary narrative of her mother’s lived experience…into words that will live on forever. The narrative takes the reader through penitence and mourning until finally returning us to a place of confident yet gentle commitment. “Miss Mom Forever” is yearning, sentimentality, and eternality. It is a requiem for coming to terms with sorrow. We all have our journeys of love, mercy, and triumph. One sentence on the book’s first page sums it up well: “My mother is my first and only unchanging, everlasting love. Literature is my second.”
