Feast or famine

Description:

The author "conveys a daughters sadness as her mother slowly loses the ability to breathe and to remember, while the humorous short stories and illustrations of a loving and zany artist family are ever up-lifting. This book becomes a vehicle in which the entire family travels back in time to help their mother remember her bohemian past and what makes this book so memorable is that we are allowed to go there as well."--P. [4] of cover.
