Sounds like a weird request but let me explain. Although Mandarin was technically my first language, I lost the ability to speak, read and write proficiently in Chinese since moving to a different country when I was very young. However, it is my mother's native language and her English isn't the best. I want to be able to write a letter dedicated to her where hopefully it's easier for her to understand that she played absolutely no role in my desire to die. To do that, I want to write the letter in Chinese so there's no room for misinterpretation (I don't trust google translate to do that) because the last thing I'd want is my death negatively impacting her health.
I'm willing to put work into this because I love her so very much, so if anyone can reach out, I'd really appreciate it! OR if anyone has any other suggestions on how else I can do this, please comment!

听起来是一个奇怪的请求,但请允许我解释。虽然普通话在技术上是我的第一语言,但自从我在我很小的时候搬到了另一个国家以后,我失去了在中文方面流利地说、读和写的能力。然而,这是我母亲的母语,她的英语不是很好。我想能够写一封专门给她的信,希望她能更容易理解,我对于想要死去的愿望与她毫无关系。为了做到这一点,我想用中文写这封信,这样就不会有误解的余地(我不相信谷歌翻译能做到这一点),因为我最不希望的是我的死对她的健康产生负面影响。
我愿意付出努力,因为我非常爱她,所以如果有人能帮忙,我会非常感激!或者如果有人对我如何做这件事有任何其他建议,请留言告诉我!

Not a native speaker but under "other suggestions" how is that? I'm sure she would appreciate the effort regardless of what you decided to do. Best wishes.

BaiduFanyi is a translation engine made by the Chinese Company Baidu. (Basically Chinese Google Translate). I'm chinese myself and I'm impressed with how accurate the translations are. It even helped me write a poem in Chinese.

That's a good idea. I was going to suggest sending your mother something unrelated using Baidu, and then asking her about it.

Being involved in anything regarding suicide is so sensitive and controversial (even as simple as writing/translating a note)...Hate this suicide-prevention world we live in. Feel free to DM me if you need help with Chinese...
