Dying and Grieving Seen Through a Unitary LensHunter-Bellevue School of Nursing, Hunter College/City University of New York, New York, vmalinsk{at}hunter.cuny.edu In this column, Todaro-Franceschi presents a unitary view of energy, grounded within Rogers (1992) science of unitary human beings, that supports a new view of dying and grieving, one based on the assumption that energy transforms, but is never lost. She briefly discusses her research on synchronicities related to dead loved ones as a basis for a new healing modality for the bereaved. Pilkington summarizes five studies on the lived experience of grieving within Parses human becoming theory that were conducted either by her or William Cody. The unified description that emerged can assist nurses in being truly present with those who are grieving a loss.
