One of the things that also makes Suzanne relatable is even though she was more or less depressed because after returning to her time period she lost Cody for a while, she was still being a good mother to younger Cody. She still took care of him, played with him, and just loved him. I believe this is true for many good mothers - you are there for kids no matter what life throws at you.
I agree completely! Even when women are abused, they still try to be the best mothers they can be. At least from what I have seen. Suzanne was very relatable. The author did a great job on that!
