Your Mom's problem is called SUNDOWNERS. My heart goes out to you.
I have read Peace from the Pieces a very interesting book. I am reading Chinese Cinderella the next is Falling leaves and the 3 is a spiritual book of Chine culture called Watching the tree. all written by Adeline Yen Mah I bought them at Alabris.com for .99 each shipping is usually 3.00 each. Cheaper than a magazine.
