Why Did Daniel Lose Her Mother

Throughout the essay “New Perspective” by: Janice E. Fein, she explores in immense detail how she suffered as a child who grew up with a mother that was very ill. She explains the hardships she underwent and expressed how she felt “cheated in life”. As a small child she could only remember her mother walking her to kindergarten once, as she describes in the essay, but after that she could only remember her mother laying in a “massive” and “ugly” hospital bed. As a child, its difficult sometimes to understand and grasp complicated situations like this. Most of the time children only hold one perspective of things, their own. Fein discusses the impact her mother’s illness had on her childhood and how it taught her later on in life when she became

Gibson glances at me and his eyebrows furrow. “Don’t think too much. Rest.” I let my eyes wander out to the empty field outside, thinking of the future and the past. I part another chapter of my life to be a mother. Perhaps I am giving up my independence like sacrifices to please an angry god, or rather goddess. The answers are not all there, but at least one part of my world is established, a small but important comfort. I look towards the child one last time as if she were a mirage in a hot desert. She no longer cries in her father’s arms, voice and energy drained from its earlier tantrums into existence.

Death is a natural occurrence that although subconsciously we all know will happen one day, there is a continuous reluctance to think about it and even to fully accept it. It is not surprising news that when an important family member dies, it can take a toll on the family as a whole. As a mom, it is difficult to watch your child be strained to handle a parent’s responsibility. Leaving Conor’s mom feeling as if she is inadequate and failing as his mother. A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness explores the idea of death, its denial, the underlying pressure of the parent-child relationship due to the unfortunate circumstances. Conor’s mom feels as if she is doing an inadequate job and failing him as a mother. By holding back true information of her illness as a way to compensate her sons’ feelings, she does more harm than good. Conor eventually learns that he cannot avoid dealing with death and loss, so instead of relying on his family to show him how to cope, he uses his dreams and the Monster as his coping mechanism where he finds the truth he has been looking for.

This type of upbringing would lead one to believe that her life would not amount to anything and torn by the fact that she was not residing with her family.

Something to love. Something to hang onto.’” This shows how even that Lena may not approve of my decision to keep the baby she understands why I would want to. It shows that light can come out of darkness, because this baby will be my everything. Even though he or she was conceived during such horrible times she is going to be the reason I want to survive this war. However that’s not my only reason to believe that light can come out of darkness. I told Lena the story of how it was in the ghetto when my mother was living. I said, “When we’d return from work, she’d make us dinner, She always told me she wasn't hungry. Shed take a few bites and say, ‘Here, Karolina, you eat the rest.’..... My mother sacrificed herself and starved so I could live.” Before the war I despised my mother. She was a drunk, who never did anything for me, but when we came to ghetto she showed me how much she loved me and how strong she was. This showed me that light can come out of darkness because these circumstances that we endured brought out the good in my mother. The mother who sacrificed herself for me to survive. On top of that I was lucky to find a good man that I loved who was willing to break the law for

This made me think about what I would do if my mother died. I believe I would probably be very sad, but I would also keep moving in life. I can’t just stop what I am doing because someone has died -- my aunt’s death already taught me that. Everyone has to go sometime; that time will come sooner or later -- it’s inevitable. Starting anew every time someone close dies is a bad idea, because one will never get anything done that way. (84

She lays helplessly, hopelessly tranced. What will remain of her in the coming hours is unknown, but one thing is for certain, I will remain by her side until she is an empty house, cold and unseeing. Though sorrow may fill my bones, all that I let show through is a sense of tranquil energy in lieu of the recent events. She mumbles and murmurs longing for the life long past. Embarrassment occupies her brain as she contemplates why and how her life has come to this. She reeks of stupidity and frailness when her life was nothing close to that. She fears that what we leave behind is more important that what we were. Is it though? Regardless of what she was or what she has become, I am here and I will always be here.
