Description:
<jats:p> Hospice 101 interweaves three sites of narration: (a) my home and family life; (b) my training as a hospice volunteer; and (c) the death of my sister. The article both introduces hospice, palliative care, and the dying process and immerses the reader in these experiences through the intermingling of ethnographic and literary techniques. Writing Hospice 101 has been a method of inquiry for me, but, unexpectedly, the writing has also been a method of palliative self-care. </jats:p>
