pictures, newspaper clippings, clip art or scrapbooking pieces of her favorite stuff, like picnic baskets if she likes to picnic...scrapbooking stores have stickers and appliques that can be placed on a scrapbook that can help bring your ideas to life. another idea is to take a blank sheet of scrapbooking paper and write her a letter or have you and your siblings, friends, cousins etc to write her a letter in the scrapbook...thats what i did when i was scrapbooking for my young nephew before he was born. scraps of old blankets, hats, scarves, quilts, etc are also nice if she is into that sort of thing as well. put your own heart and soul into it and i'm sure she will love it regardless. hope it helps!
good luck

memory book may have anything related to past experiences that makes you recall something. Memory book can have the following things
1. photographs of childhooh
2. photographs of relatives
3. certificates received by the individual
4. memos received by the individual
5. names and pictures of places where the person has gone and liked
6. salary slips
7. newspaper cuttings of events that were important for the person
8.pictures of different things if the memory loss is in an advanced stage
But besides all this, one thing is very important that the people around the individual need to be happy and make the person also feel happy. Besides in the advanced technology days of today, tumors if properly treated and taken care of , can be removed through various different means....so be optimistic and give it your best shot...leave the rest to god!

I am not too familiar with scrapbooking but am very aware of how popular it has become as of late. If there is a scrapbooking club in your area I would suggest that you join it and there you can get a lot of different and valuable opinions and ideas for this memory book. I am very sorry that I couldn't be of more assistance but do believe that you deserve kudos for doing such a thoughtful and unselfish thing for your mother. Best of luck and I hope that you make a blue ribbon scrapbook for your mom and health improves.

What a wonderful idea, I am sure your mom will be very pleased. In addition to pictures you can include newspaper clippings, copies of documents such as your birth certificate, ticket stubs or programs from events you shared.

Special gatherings that you all had together. Birthday cards given to her. Grand and Great Grandchildren pictures and drawings. Let everyone have a page to write a letter to her of how much they love her.
My prayers are with you and your family!!!!!

is there a chance you have access to a cassette recorder ? if so, maybe sing her favorite song, tell her in your voice how much you love her... anything to bring a smile to her face. tape a large envelope in your memory book, of course decorate it with bright colors. This will allow her to play it when she wants
