摘要

这篇文章讲述的是我和母亲离开我们时的一段旅程。这篇文章使用了一种民族志方法，使我作为作家，能够利用我个人的痛苦和思想，对母亲去世前的时光给予平静、理解和视角。这篇文章还为那些也将与年迈的父母经历同样经历的人提供了一个框架，以消除死亡的耻辱感，并帮助读者处于艰难的境地。对我来说，能和那个把我带到这个世界上的女人在一起，能在她离开时和她单独在一起，我感到很荣幸。

Helping Mom Die: An Auto-ethnographic Account of Preparing for Death

This article is about a journey that I took with my mother as she left us. It is an article using an autoethnographic approach which allows me, the writer, to use both my personal pain and thoughts as a way to give peace, understanding, and perspective of the time before my mom’s death. This article is also about giving a framework for those who will also go through the same experience with an aging parent, to both take away the stigma of death and to help the reader be present in a tough situation. For me, it was an honor to be with the woman who brought me into this world and to be able to be alone with her as she left.
