When star of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Potomac Dr. Wendy Osefo was growing up, her mother was her everything. But when she became a mother herself, everything changed. In this “exquisitely-drawn portrait of the intense bond that only a mother can have with a daughter” (Katie Haufner, author of Mother Daughter Me), Wendy explores how her Nigerian upbringing has affected her life, her success, and her role as a parent. Wendy Osefo’s mother, Iyom Susan Okuzu, arrived in the United States from Nigeria with two things: a single suitcase and the fierce determination to make a better life for herself and her future family. And she succeeded: starting out working in a fast-food restaurant and ultimately becoming the director of nursing at a major metropolitan hospital. While Susan may have taken pride in triumphing over every financial and emotional challenge, in Nigerian culture, a parent is only as successful as his or her children. And so her daughter, with gratitude and appreciation for her mother’s sacrifices, worked hard to meet every demand Susan made of her. With four advanced degrees and a position at Johns Hopkins University as a professor—as well as being a highly sought-after political commentator, a cherished wife, and a loving mother of three—Dr. Wendy has given her mother bragging rights for life. But at what cost to herself? In Tears of My Mother, the star of The Real Housewives of Potomac describes growing up as a first-generation American, balancing two distinct cultures. And she takes a critical look at the paradox of her mother’s parenting: approval conditioned by achievement. As a teenager, Wendy struggled to carve out her own identity while still walking the narrow path of her mother’s expectations. Unwavering family loyalty and obedience gave Wendy the road map to making it in America, but it also drove a wedge between mother and daughter, never more so than when she began to build her own family. “A love letter to Dr. Osefo’s mother and first-generation immigrants all across America” (Library Journal), this book is for anyone who has faced conflict in the mother-daughter relationship or wondered how much of their own upbringing they want to pass on to the next generation.

This book is a chronicle of my thoughts and feelings, a narrative of what I have experienced on my journey to motherhood. There is nothing as tragic as the loss of a baby, more so the loss of many babies. When I lost them, I lost pieces of myself that are hard to forget. The depth of love I felt for my angels hasn't faded. It has been documented that in the UK, 1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss, but conversations around the heart-breaking frequent experiences are few and far between. To those of you who have experienced child or baby loss, you are not alone. I can relate to 'those' feelings. I recognise the changes to your DNA and in your outlook on life. It has been hard navigating the very foreign terrain of raw emotions of guilt, the numerous unanswered questions; all without a roadmap to help navigate them as they pop up. I hope this book offers you an insight to be able to extend a helping hand to 'mothers' who have no physical children cradling their hip or suckling at their bosom; none neither in the pram... mothers with nothing to prove their claims, but an unsuccessful effort at wading through the foggy clouds of postnatal depression...

"Tears For My Mother" is a true and personal story written by Rick Henry, and chronicles his relationship with his mother through the years. This tenderly told story spans over 50 years, and is still taking place. The story is told in an easy, narrative style. You'll relate to the independence that Rick writes about that comes with growing up; it's an independence that sometimes conflicts with motherly love. You'll smile as you learn about the affectionate term Rick calls his mom. There are moments shared that will touch your heart and might even bring a tear to your eye. It is a story of facing the hard reality that life is full of events, many of which are unexpected. Rick shares how his personal life changed when he moved back home to help his parents adjust to meet their different personal challenges. Rick has especially focused more of his attention on his mother, whose situation has compounded challenges. But this is also a story of victory, because in spite of the personal obstacles, Rick has made it possible for his parents to live at home by stepping up to the role of caregiver. They have all had to learn and adapt to lifestyle changes. Theirs is a family bond that has grown deeper and richer over time. You'll find that "Tears For My Mother" is as much a story about Rick, as it is about his mother. He is honest with us in sharing his feelings that ranged from annoyance with the motherly attention in his early years to sharing the pivotal point in his adulthood when his world changed, and he had to become the head of the household. Rick also reflects on those earlier memories and has gleaned an appreciation for all that his mother did for him. "Tears For My Mother" is a wonderful tribute to Rick's mother, as well as being a source of inspiration for those facing similar challenges with aging parents. But most of all, at its core, it is a story about love. Irene Economou

A heart-bruising dive into the terror of Alzheimers. This memoir-like tale told through the eyes of a care-giving daughter and the clouded mind of her declining mother had me racing to the final page. Rashbaum cleverly weaves these two views of this harrowing journey through inner thoughts and honest dialogue to paint an un-Norman Rockwell portrait of one familys struggle with this horrible disease. -Jay Gilbertson, author of Moon Over Madeline Island and Back to Madeline Island Penning from the internal landscape of another is difficult enough, but doing so from the mind of a mentally tormented soul, with all the nuances of such complexity, is beyond comprehension. This is what Burt Rashbaum has accomplished in his brilliant portrayal of his mother as she experiences the devastation of Alzheimers. Not to sound too otherworldly about this, I do believe she must have guided Burt from beyond for the portrayal to have been so heartbreakingly accurate. A must read for all! -Peggy Warren, author of Very Much a Womans Book and Gathering Peace

The expansiveness of the environment offers a setting where the unexpected can happen at a moment's notice.
