My Mother, My Son illustrates the power of love and a cruel twist of fate. A son who came from a struggling family that had little means was able to fulfill his mother's lifelong dream to be successful, a "big shot" with all the status and trappings that entailed. Little did they know that her dream would end with a disease that had become an integral part of his livelihood.

Even though his life's work dealt with the elderly and memory loss, he still has to come to terms with the diagnosis and the painful realization that his mother would one day forget who he was and the dreams and memories they had shared.
