Description

Being a mother encompasses life's greatest joys and challenges. In these wonderful DVDs featuring stories from real women, Project Life Stories explores the complex emotional terrain of motherhood. The performances include a very intimate story from the founder of Mothering Magazine, Peggy O'Mara, about almost losing her own daughter and fulfilling her own dreams as a mother and writer. A lesbian mom shares the joys and struggles of parenting with her long term partner, as passion gives way to days and nights of attending to all the needs of young children. A newly divorced mother of two young boys shares the loss of a dream and new ways of being a woman unfold for her. A very funny and joyful woman speaks of the pain and transcedence that accompanied her home birth twelve years ago and the challenges of being a mom now to a very "cool" pre-teen boy. And, a poignant story from both sides; a 58 year old mother who lived through and beyond her precious daughter's drug addiction and her daughter, now 29 and in recovery, share their amazing and triumphant journey that will deeply touch any mother's heart.
