I am an editor...I found your post very interesting. I am an editor who works primarily with people who are creating memoirs and family histories. One of the questions they often struggle with is some form of, "How much truth should I tell?" You confront that question head on. I will recommend on my blog that people trying to figure out how to handle this issue look at your post. I think they will gain a good deal of insight from what you've said.

Especially at the same age that she wrote hers.<br />I am so very proud of you for bearing it all,no matter the cost.<br />You are so right our history is tainted with tales being told to please rather than the blatent truths.<br /> Your mother changed very little with age..even her hair style. She looks so pleasant,but I know you have said how contrary she was.But,keeping in mind what she went through,it was little wonder she was almost always in a snit.<br />I think she must have known about your father,hence, her bad mood.
