Abstract

This study explored how parents of children with acquired disabilities transform loss into meaning when faced with traumatic experiences. This type of loss is ambiguous and different from that of the bereaved. Directed content analysis was guided by the predetermined categories of unveiling, darkness, and light. Stories from 8 parents revealed the ability to decide how they perceived their experiences, discovering meaning in caring for their child despite the suffering associated with loss. These findings offer direction for nursing research, practice, and policy on how to assist parents in overcoming these challenges and shed light on the dynamic perspectives of loss.

照顾后天残疾儿童：揭开黑暗中的光明

本研究探讨了后天残疾儿童的父母在面对创伤经历时如何将损失转化为意义。这种失落是模糊的，不同于失去亲人的失落。在预先确定的 "揭示"、"黑暗 "和 "光明 "类别的指导下，对内容进行了分析。来自 8 位父母的故事表明，他们有能力决定如何看待自己的经历，尽管与失去亲人有关的痛苦让他们发现了照顾孩子的意义。这些发现为护理研究、实践和政策提供了如何帮助父母克服这些挑战的方向，并阐明了失去孩子的动态视角。

The journal particularly encourages works that speak to the need for global sustainability and that take an intersectional approach, recognizing class, color, sexual and gender identity, and other dimensions of human experience related to health.
