Roosevelt and her daughter Anna became estranged after she took over some of her mother 's social duties at the White House . The relationship was further strained because Roosevelt desperately wanted to go with her husband to Yalta in February 1945 ( two months before FDR 's death ) , but he took Anna instead . A few years later , the two were able to reconcile and cooperate on numerous projects . Anna took care of her mother when she was terminally ill in 1962
