Nora Allen is the mother of the Flash. He changed history for the worse when he travelled back in time to save her from being killed.

Flashpoint

Flashpoint Vol 2 1 Textless
Flashpoint
This section of the history takes place during Flashpoint, a massive crossover event set in an alternate timeline to the mainstream DCU. History was completely changed when Professor Zoom finally found a way to erase his nemesis the Flash without harming his own legacy.

Waking up suddenly at his desk, Barry Allen has only a few seconds to puzzle out the fact that something in his work environment has changed before he hears that a Rogue named Miss Alchemy is engaging in a felony. Barry starts running to get there, only to fall down a nearby flight of stairs. This alone is a puzzle to him, but then he is greeted by an even bigger shock Nora Allen, still alive in the present day and coming to visit him.[1]

It is later revealed to Barry by the Reverse-Flash that the Flashpoint timeline was actually created by Barry himself, after he traveled back in time to stop Thawne from killing his mother. After Barry reveals his secrets and his inadvertent role of creating a apocalyptic world to his mother, he bids a tearful farewell to her, knowing he must travel back in time to stop his younger self from altering time.

Once meeting his younger self moments before he arrives to the past, Barry merges with his young counterpart during the attempt to stop him, but also inadvertently creates another alternate timeline which slightly differs from the original.[2]
