"Because She's My Mother" by Paula Stone combines both poignancy and humor to follow the bittersweet journey of an adult daughter as she cares for both her mother and herself. Among the many issues the play raises are the challenges and conflicts of both the caregiver and care recipient as they each struggle to face loss and let go into the nature of life.  This link to an unlisted youtube videorecording of the play is being offered to the ProAging Community for only streaming at no charge as a community service and not for commercial purposes.
