Resumen
FERNANDEZ, Alba Rosa. Feeling nurse after the passing of a loved one. Invest. educ. enferm [online]. 2010, vol.28, n.2, pp.267-274. ISSN 0120-5307.
With 14 years of university graduate as a nurse, the author experienced the pain, sorrow, loss, and uncertainty in illness and death of a loved one. Knowledge and experience gotten in her professional life were not enough to face these feelings which became pain, guilt, and reality denial. From her personal experience she rebuilt the nurse feelings to her mother's death: that one, a tiny woman but of great character who with only 54 years old faced a terminal cancer. Impotence during the diseases course, the loss, grief, denial, anger, depression, acceptance and death made her understand the nursing role in critical situations that involve loved ones.
