Description
Summary:This study is a practical research which presents, in a descriptive way, the experience of constituting a group of family adult members who are responsible for the home care of a child with Diabetes mellitus. Such study was guided by Martha Rogers’ concepts of Man, Environment and Nursing, as well as Fritjof Capras’s Systemic Conception of Life. The result of this experience enabled the opening of the participants’ energy fields, favouring exchanges in order to harmonise the rhythmicities in their life processes, looking forward greater possibilities to the different interconnections that a diabetic child needs to enhance his/her probability of development to integrate life network.
