ABSTRACT The author reflects on her relationship with her mother which has been strained since childhood and their e-mail correspondence about her breast cancer in old age. She explores reasons for their challenges, such as her father’s patriarchal abuse, her mother’s burden of domestic duties and unfulfillment, and distorted, idealized images of mother-daughter relationships in the media.
