My mom is a writer.

She knows I'm a writer.

We have a great deal of mutual respect.

And she gave it to me and said, wanted feedback.

Well, the kind of feedback you give

to your mom writing a eulogy for her sister is very different from the feedback you give to someone in the workplace doing a project for a client, right?

It's a whole different.

Yeah.

And knowing my mom as I do, you know, I just thought that she's fragile.

She's the furthest thing from fragile.

But she didn't need feedback on the kind of quality of the words.

She wanted to make sure that she was, was she representing the memory of her sister?

Because she's, it was her twin sister.

Super close to her sister.

And at that moment in the eulogy, she needed to have, she was explaining her sister to people who did not know her sister the way she knew her sister, right?

That's the challenge.

She needed someone to tell her,

Have I taken enough distance from this?

Have I explained my... Am I rushing because I know all this stuff and I think everyone knows this stuff about my sister.

That's what she wanted.
