This study aimed to describe how three women who lost close family members to the new
coronavirus in 2021 understand the grieving process. Specifically, we sought to narrate the
experience of grief during the COVID-19 pandemic of the participants, identify the narratives
used by them in the search for a new meaning of this grief and outline the consequences of grief
in the lives of the participants. This is a qualitative and descriptive study. Three women, aged
between 27 and 75 years old, residing in Palmas-TO and who lost between 1 and 2 family
members due to death due to COVID 19, volunteered to participate. field and the narratives
were analyzed. We obtained the following results: a) The narratives of mourning resulting from
the COVID-19 pandemic are permeated with comings and goings, not obeying a linearity, as
they are reports that go beyond the most diverse feelings in an introspective way; b) The process
of reframing the mourning resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic is affected not only by the
absence of relationships previously built with the deceased subject, but also by the impossibility
of carrying out the funeral rites in the manner in which they are established, a fact that causes
a slowdown in the process of overcoming grief; c) The consequences of mourning in the lives
of the participants had great impacts on their social relationships, both positive, such as getting
closer to family members, and negative, such as isolation, arising from the difficulty of
overcoming it. We conclude that by narrating the experience of grief in the pandemic of the
three participants, we understand that talking about the grief process can be a balm for those
who are submerged in this swamp. In this way, we identified the narratives used by the
participants in the search for resignification. The use of these metaphors in the mourning
narratives in the COVID-19 pandemic gave a certain lightness to the burden we placed on our
backs when dealing with such a complex subject, but which allowed us to understand the
paradox arising from the consequence of mourning in the lives of the collaborators of this
research. Thus, we use the metaphors of ONÇA, FORTALEZA and ÁRVORE to identify and
analyze the narratives of the participants. |
