The End of Your Life Book Club 読了 |
読み始めたときに日記に記載していないけど、 8/19にAmazonで買ってるからまぁ約1か月かかったね。
死ぬのを待ってて、ようやく死んだ、って感じかな。
ほんと、立派なお母さんなんだよなー。
死に行く人への接し方
1. Ask: "Do you want to talk about how you're feeling?" 2. Don't ask if there's anything you can do. Suggest things, or if it's not intrusive, just do them. 3. You don't have to talk all the time. Sometimes just being there is enough.
小話
"A father and his son are in a terrible car crash. The father is killed instantly-but the son survives, barely, his life hanging in the balance. He's rushed to the hospital and into surgery, but there's only one doctor there, and as soon as the doctor sees the boy, the doctor says, 'I can't operate on my own son!' How could this be, if the boy's father was killed in the crash?"
私もひっかかったんだよねー。 種明かしされて自分でもびっくりだ。未だに医者=男なんて思い込みに縛られてるなんて。
ちなみに、作者が男だって思って読んでて、My partner David って出てくる度に あれ、作者女性だっけ?それともゲイ?ってコンランするのも同じかも。
