As she matured into adulthood, she battled addictions that eventually led her into recovery, just as Eleanors health began to decline. When she found herself sandwiched between two generations, each increasingly needy, Blaire poignantly reveals how she discovered the true meaning of love and commitment, and the essence of what it means to be a mother.
