Helpful Score: 5

Years ago I read this memoir, and enjoyed it more than any book I had ever read. I emailed the author, Eleanor Cooney, and we have been online friends ever since. This book made me laugh outloud so many times, and even shed more than one tear.Can you imagine being raised by a mother that won a beauty contest judged by Frank Sinatra?
and then took off for a while and married a movie star, Durante? The only reason I am posting this is, I have multiple copies, and wanted to share it with someone. She sure stood by her mother, as DEMENTIA by Alzheimers changed her from a famous author of novels herself, to, at the end of the story, an inmate of a rest home..I cant say enough about how womderful a writer Eleanor Cooney is, I love her to pieces.She even has an amazing website for this book, you could spend hours enjoying it.Thank you!
