And therein lies the silver lining. God can enable us to find something good in any situation, no matter how horrible it was or how much it damaged us. That's because He's the ultimate Fixer-Upper. I love that you shared the way your MC has chosen to be an overcomer instead of a victim. Well done.
This is a vey good story. I liked the way you effectively portrayed the tough relationship the narrator and her mother shared. And it is also apparent that she struggles to honor her mother the best way she can, despite their lack of closeness. But I especially liked the way she went back in memery and discerned that her and her mother shared ice cream together. It was like a tender moment amidst a harsh reality. Good work.
