SPRING RENEWAL
Charlotte D. Barry, PhD, RN, NCSN, FAAN
LISTEN
May, a month filled with so many expressions of grace and gratitude for new beginnings, renewed promises as well as recommitments to appreciate the budding life around us. A quote from a writing by Schemann captures this for me.
It is spring in Koltsovo, and clattering tractors draw a rich earthy fragrance from the swollen fields. The snow has gone by early April and now a light green haze dusts the forest. Snowdrops, pussy willows and the tiny yellow blooms know as mother and step mother speckle the hillside. The coming of spring has always brought a sense of triumph in these northern lands…the screeching of the first rooks in the treetops, and that mystical moment when the ice began to move on the winding Oka.
‘At last the evening would come when the sky clouded over. The temperature warmed and a thick fog would rise, and that night the last battle would be joined between spring and the departing winter. In the morning, Nanny would announce that ‘the river had moved’.
The whole road to the Oka, the entire forest rang with the sound of water that burbled, hummed or thundered as it rushed to the river…the ice still moved in a solid sheet, very slowly, almost imperceptibly, but irresistibly. In that slowness there was a sense of unbelievable, elemental, force’…the timeless celebration of renewal spreads an almost intangible sense of relief that Russia has made it through another winter (Schemann, 1992).
And so it is with this edition of the Journal of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, our contributors have captured this move, this opening, this well spring of hope and shared with us, aesthetic re-presentations of caring. Their re-presentations are in poetry, art, a photo essay and song.
We, the editors, invite you to turn once again to the aesthetic, to dwell within stillness, and to find renewal on your journey.

Sylvia

SYLVIA
This is a story I tell all my nursing students. It’s the story of a nurse named Sylvia. She’s the nurse all my colleagues wanted to be like when we grew up. As a new nurse, I remember trying to be near her as much as possible to soak up her knowledge and essence. Sylvia was quiet and strong. She lived and breathed the mantra, I have no judgement but nursing judgement.
This is the story I tell. There was a patient on our unit who needed a blood transfusion. She had given birth several days before but had lost a lot of blood. All she needed was a blood transfusion and she would improve. But the patient was a Jehovah’s Witness and could not accept blood. Day by day we watched her get weaker. As the nursing team, we did everything we could think of to support her decision but also advocate for her. To complicate matters, elders from her church surrounded her, reminding her that she was making the right choice. She was never alone. Finally, one evening they relented, and left her bedside. Sylvia was her nurse that shift, and she did the only thing she could do since there was nothing left in her nursing bag of tricks. Sylvia climbed into bed with the patient and simply held her close and hugged her. At that moment, the patient saw her chance and whispered to Sylvia, “I want blood.” Sylvia leapt to action and began to make calls to save her life and she lived.
This is what we do. This is nursing. Sometimes my students think the only way to be a good nurse is to be able to do all the “things” but sometimes it’s simply being present and quiet and still at just the right moment.
Abstract
As nurses, we all have stories of the mentors who raised us from fledging, wanna-bes to fully-formed, real nurses. But sometimes there’s one that stands out. There’s one that you’ll never forget. For me, and many others, that nurse was Sylvia. She was the smallest, smidgen of a woman who had a heart of gold and a mind as swift as the day she graduated from nursing school. It was an honor to learn at Sylvia’s feet and I hope one day to be half the nurse she was.

Flower, Etc.
FLOWER, ETC.
Zane Robinson Wolf, PhD, RN, CNE, FAAN
Abstract
Inspired by colleagues and the energy of the Minneapolis Caring Conference in 2018, I responded to a call for expressing caring through art. I immediately felt a kind of release: to create a painting. After selecting brushes and a set of water colors, I just went with the flow. I remembered how much I missed painting and wondered when I would return to that place in my life. I just went with the idea of a flower and delighted in letting go and choosing colors I loved. I felt joy and thanked my colleagues who asked for this expression. The heart at the center of the flower reminds me of my caring center and that of all people I meet. Hold onto that center and share it.

Closeness with the Creator
CLOSENESS WITH THE CREATOR
Gail Sullivan, PhD, MSN, APRN-BC
I was in a room today, where a mother just gave birth.
LISTEN
An older woman sat at the new mother’s side.
The infant’s presence was palpable.
The father proudly smiled at his beloved
And with wonder in his face
He tried to hold on to the miracle of it all.
All in synchrony, everyone had a place.
All in synchrony, everyone emerged new.
All in synchrony, the infant cries.
The cries of all our cries – the need for another,
Of the very young and the very old.
All in synchrony, all on a journey.
An infant – new and untouched,
An older woman – life purified
All in synchrony, entering and leaving life.
Closeness with the Creator.
Abstract
It was early, before dawn, as she lay calmly inhaling the joy of giving birth. My role was to observe my student deliver her care. Mom’s matriarch, an octogenarian perhaps, sat quietly next to the bed, seemingly comprehended it all. While the young dad sprang around the room in giddy excitement. I was struck by everyone’s presence, each person’s place in this miraculous moment. It was clear, a new soul arrived and an older one soon leaving. Home, it stopped me in my tracks.

AN ABBREVIATED CASE STUDY IN GERIATRIC ORTHOPAEDICS
Michael J. Leach, BPharm GradCerSc (Applied Statistics) MBiostat CHIA PhD (Pharmacoepidemiology)
Abstract
‘An Abbreviated Case Study in Geriatric Orthopaedics’ is a concrete poem about an older person’s journey
through the hospital system, from the emergency department to the intensive care unit. The patient’s journey is
conveyed in verse through the rhyming of acronyms and abbreviations that are commonly encountered in healthcare.
The acronym or abbreviation at the end of each line is separated from the bulk of the poem to create a visual image – a
long jagged line. This jagged line is symbolic of the patient’s fractured neck of femur. The concrete poem is intended
to provide a striking visual representation of the story conveyed in words.

The nurse clocks in and instantly the day begins. First she is greeted by the night nurse’s solemn face; another has been lost. Sadness fills within her for the young boy who has passed. But the nurse continues on, consoling the grieving family. She flicks through endless pages of records as the bustling increases around her. Beginning her rounds, she sees patients, offering up a piece of herself for each one. The workload today has doubled from yesterday. But the nurse continues on, giving like she is endless. A first-time mother delivers her baby after hours of difficult labor. A new life has been brought into the world. The nurse nearly collapses in relief. But the nurse continues on, smiling warmly at the woman and her new child. As time passes by, more patients need to be tended too. Her short lunch is interrupted by a patient emergency. A sister’s worry and concern fills the floor with nervous energy. But the nurse continues on, soothing the older sibling. The patient’s shoulders tremble slightly as they brace themselves for the news. Their tears slide down their face slowly and quietly. Her husband’s hands clutch at her, sobbing. But the nurse continues on, offering up a kind heart and shoulders to cry on. Between patient care, the nurse turns to her office to catch up on paperwork. Emails flood in about patients, schedules, and demands. She rubs her tired eyes feeling overwhelmed. But the nurse continues on, giving it her full focus and responding to each and every one. A child’s cries can be heard throughout the ward. The patient is being prepped for surgery. He whispers to the nurse, “I am scared.” But the nurse continues on, slipping a reassuring hand into his small one. The nurse begins to finish up her shift. She is exhausted, but a replacement has not shown up yet. Her feet ache as she shuffles slowly around the floor. But the nurse continues on, keeping up a bright exterior for her patients. Finally, it is time to go home. Though the nurse’s day is never truly done. She clocks out after a very long shift, wondering sometimes if she made the right choices that day. But the nurse continues on, replenishing herself and getting ready for the next day of caring.

I visited some remote mountain villages, and took these photographs to tell the story of hardship and premature
aging. This photographic essay illuminates the lifeways of both hardship and happiness of subsistence living in
remote villages in the Himalayan Mountains.
This is an inviting vista of this community that looks like a painting by Van Gogh.
16︱ Journal
of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019 This is a photo essay of Sita Sharma (a fictitious name) who lives in the remote village of Pelunga in the hilly region of Nepal that lies around 3,200 feet above sea level.
Sita is 77 years old, a mother and grandmother who lives alone in her home surrounded by a small community of women, mostly widows. Like many of the young villagers, most of Sita’s children and grandchildren have left the mountains to pursue education and jobs elsewhere. At her feet is millet plucked by her and left to dry, the morning fog still enveloping the village, a basket and mug and a recently installed electric cable - her valued properties. In the picture, we also see a small mound of sacred red mud on which she had grown a holy basil plant. There is a tradition of placing people who are near the end of their lives in front of this holy basil, because basil gives off more oxygen than other plants. The grandmother is in her widow attire; no tint of red on her body since the husband passed away 20 years ago.
Sita shares with the photographer her first telephone! Landlines have not reached the village but faint signals can be picked up by mobile phones. The phones have to be kept charged for when the electricity goes off, usually for about 18 hours each day. This device has transformed her life as her children and grandchildren from every place on the globe could reach her. She feels blessed to have this luxury.
Journal of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019︱17 In this picture Sita is smiling in front of her house made of red mud and stone. It shows most of her belongings: her beehive (in white and red painted box at right top), her bed, situated on a shelf outside her home seen with a quilt draped on it, a hay-mat being dried, her thatched roof, shawl, walking stick, and a smile full of the world that is at her disposal.
This picture is of Sita’s youngest daughter Gita, an unmarried woman who is deaf. Gita is holding Sita’s most valuable piece of property -- the goats she has reared. Goats are important source of income in these communities where the fresh meat is sold for up to $4 U.S. dollars per pound. The healthy goats reared in this remote mountainous village are prized possessions. The average size (44 lbs) of a live young goat fetches about $80 U.S. dollars and helps the family survive for almost a month. In the background we have a better view of Sita’s bed with a glass for water used during the night and also a stone grinder used for various grown products.
18︱ Journal
of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019 In this picture we see Sita’s house and neighborhood, situated as the cross roads of steep stone steps leading up to the village and a public walking path on the lower left corner used for travel up and down the mountain. Nestled in the stones on the side of her house is the community water tap, piping fresh water from a high spring. These reflect hardships the villagers face daily. When the village tap is dry, water is collected from the nearest natural spring, which is a half hour walk away. Fetching water is the most difficult task for the villagers. As one enters her house, there is always water stored in whatever vessel she has set near the door. It is a reminder of the importance of conserving water for when the tap is dry and also for hospitality. Water is offered immediately when anyone enters the home.
PK ({* {* OEBPS/html/page4.htmlAnother grandmother in the village, Kumari, a second wife of Sita’s husband, is pictured in her home surrounded by her property: her bed, cooking utensils and fire stove. With so much smoke from an indoor fire, it is not surprising there are a great number of villagers experience chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Kumari, has had a goiter for more than 40 years as iodine deficiency is a major public health problem to this day. She is preparing to cook Dhido, a meal made by cooking flour (mostly of millet) with water. Dhido is a national food of Nepal but it is considered a poor man’s food in the villages. Since most of the villages in hilly regions have terraced landscapes, there is a shortage of water to irrigate the fields. Rice is difficult to grow as it requires a lot of water and considerable effort to harvest. Crops like millet and soybean grow easily. Therefore, the villagers eat meals made up of millet and soybean even though they do not really like these foods. Rice is special to the villagers so they save it for guests and for festivals. In contrast, city people have become aware of the health advantages of millet over rice so they try to replace some of their meals with millet despite the easy availability of rice in the cities.
Journal of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019︱19 The vibrancy of this picture shows the traditional dress on the women, layers of colorful material wrapped for warmth and folded to hold common items such as a new cell phone or money. Millet and soybeans are left to dry on the front yard. Connectivity is the most powerful healer here because healthcare is a distant possibility for these warm, hearty people. It is believed that gods live in the Himalayas and they take care of the people. People think being weak and ill are common characteristics of aging, so they simply accept whatever happens to them. Laughter, chatter, reminiscing, and stories about harvests, meals and fodder are part of the daily routine of these people.
Like informal gatherings and celebrations in western societies, the villagers get together every evening, gathering at the elder's house enjoying the togetherness, and fill themselves with each other’s’ talk, retelling their own and others' stories of life.
20︱ Journal
of Art and Aesthetics in Nursing and Health Sciences, Volume 5, Number 1, Spring 2019 At the end of the day, Sita and daughters Gita and Rita gather and seem to relish their closeness. Whatever daily hardships and scarcities they face, the villagers are satisfied when they have their essentials: Adequate water, something to eat, stout walls, a roof to provide shelter and the company of others. While life is hard and healthcare difficult to obtain, there is opportunity to derive pleasure and satisfaction from one’s daily life in these villages of the Himalayas.
A news article writes that according to the global happiness survey from the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network, Nepal is the ‘third happiest’ country in South Asia.

Spruce Camp's Splendor
Denise Nagle Bailey, EdD, MSN, CSN, FCPP
SPRUCE CAMP’S SPLENDOR
Spruce Camp’s Splendor Bailey, Denise Nagle Medium: Charcoal Pencil. 11” x 14”
Abstract
Nestled quietly in the Pocono Mountains of Northeastern Pennsylvania, Pocono Lake evokes an atmosphere of quiet solitude to reflect on professional life and pressing issues without the high intensity stress and drama that are commonly encountered in life. The spruce tree, growing throughout vast wooded trails frequently walked, sends forth a powerful symbolic message to center me. Despite the grandeur and towering size of many larger spruce trees, smaller spruce trees thrive directly under the arms of these towering giants, spreading their branches to protect the flora and fauna of the lower forest floor. After a strong wind or storm, one can observe that larger spruce trees are easily uprooted as their root systems are proportionately shallow, revealing a hidden vulnerability. The smaller spruce trees nestled in close proximity to a distressed tree, seem to serve as a protective shield, providing strength to a compromised spruce. The symbolic re-presentation that this majestic spruce imparts is that we are not invincible, nor are we perfect. We are not omnipotent. Like the towering spruce in the forest, we have a need to feel supported by others who are around us, just as the spruce grow together harmoniously across the forest floor.
