One sleepless night while she was in her early twenties, illustrator/writer Hallie Bateman had a painful realization: her mom would die, and after she died she would be gone. The prospect was devastating, and also scary--how would she navigate the world without the person who gave her life? She thought about all the motherly advice she would miss--advice that could help her through the challenges to come, including the ordeal of losing a parent.
The next day, Hallie asked her mother, writer Suzy Hopkins, to record step-by-step instructions for her to follow in the event of her mom's death. The list began: "Pour yourself a stiff glass of whiskey and make some fajitas" and continued from there, walking Hallie through the days, months, and years of life after loss, with motherly guidance and support, addressing issues great and small--from choosing a life partner to baking a quiche. The project became a way for mother and daughter to connect with humor, openness, and gratitude. It led to this book.
Vào một đêm mất ngủ khi mới ở tuổi đôi mươi, họa sĩ/nhà văn Hallie Bateman đã đau đớn nhận ra: mẹ cô sẽ qua đời, và sau khi bà chết, bà cũng sẽ ra đi. Viễn cảnh thật tàn khốc và cũng đáng sợ - làm thế nào cô ấy có thể điều hướng thế giới nếu không có người đã cho cô ấy cuộc sống? Cô nghĩ về tất cả những lời khuyên của người mẹ mà cô sẽ bỏ lỡ - những lời khuyên có thể giúp cô vượt qua những thử thách sắp tới, bao gồm cả thử thách mất cha mẹ.
Ngày hôm sau, Hallie nhờ mẹ cô, nhà văn Suzy Hopkins, ghi lại những hướng dẫn từng bước để cô làm theo trong trường hợp mẹ cô qua đời. Danh sách bắt đầu: "Rót cho mình một ly whisky đặc và làm vài món fajitas" và tiếp tục từ đó, dẫn dắt Hallie qua những ngày, tháng và năm của cuộc đời sau mất mát, với sự hướng dẫn và hỗ trợ của mẹ, giải quyết các vấn đề lớn và nhỏ-- từ việc chọn bạn đời cho đến việc nướng bánh quiche. Dự án trở thành cách để hai mẹ con gắn kết với nhau bằng sự hài hước, cởi mở và lòng biết ơn. Nó dẫn đến cuốn sách này.
