A Story of Motherhood, Memory Loss and Becoming a Memoirist

Struggling to mother a high-spirited daughter, Arleen Williams learns to be a mother while mothering her own mother who is sinking into dementia.

At the same time, Williams learns to be a writer while coping with the family fallout over the pending publication of her first memoir, The Thirty-Ninth Victim. 

Mom's Last Move takes the reader to that special place between mothers and daughters, between family expectations and creative expression, between defeat and survival. 

From Amazon: 

Raw, Real, Relatable, Sue Olson  

Mom’s Last Move: A Memoir is a relatable journey of life, loss, and love through a large, 1950 era family, from the past to the present.

Arleen Williams has a rare gift of being vulnerable, and writing her own raw truths, observations, memories, and emotions that can’t help but resonate with anyone who has lost a parent this way.

 

The ability to interweave the telling of her mother’s descent into dementia, with her own mothering of her daughter is a powerful insight into just how fleeting our time is, and our chance to get it right.
