Whew.

This is one of those books that anyone who has had their parents pass on should read. It is cathartic, acerbically funny, and true.

I had a much, much better relationship than my mother than Roz did but so many of the passages echo what caregivers and adult children feel when their parents are going through the dying process. Thoughts you wish you wouldn't have, but have to get out else you go crazy.
