• Resumen

  • When someone faces loss of a loved one, that person simultaneously grieves and dies a little, just as the one dying also grieves. The author�s personal conceptualization of dying and grieving as a unitary rhythm is explored based primarily on her interpretation of Rogers� science of unitary human beings, along with selected examples from related nursing literature and from the emerging focus on continuing bonds in other disciplines. Examples from contemporary songwriters that depict such a unitary conceptualization are given along with personal examples. The author concludes with her description of the unitary rhythm of dying-grieving.
