Stowe implies that when the daughter very much resembled the mother the mother became very jealous that her own daughter was just ss much if not more beautiful than her. The mom felt like all her traits were put into the daughter aka taken away from herself into the kid. The mother later became so ... depressed in a way referring to how her health sank.
