Synopsis

A mother's death can make a shambles of schedules, priorities, agendas, commitments, and, sometimes, even our most important relationships. A mother's last breath inevitably changes us. Drawing on his own experience of loss, as well as those of others, Harold Ivan Smith guides listeners through their grief, from the process of dying through the acts of remembering and honoring a mother after her death.
