Abstract
This paper discusses Parse's theory of human becoming and how it represents an alternative knowledge base to guide nursing practice. It presents a case study in order to illustrate how Parse's theory provides structure. It demonstrates how the pivotal concepts in Parse's theory is the person as expert for his or her life and the significance of client choice. The paper shows how Parse's theory has been used as the theoretical framework that has guided the writer's own practice.
From the Paper
"Parse's human becoming theory enabled me to understand that Amy was the expert in her life and the expert in her care. The structure which Parse provided facilitated my working with Amy along a direction that correlated with her needs. As a result of that client- and family-centered perspective, we were able to develop a strong trusting relationship. She was aware that she was valued as a human being and that her point of view was at the core. She therefore was able to request assistance without feeling intimidated my professional expertise and profession. This is because in human becoming theory, the nurse never situates herself as expert (Kelly, 1999). As a result of using Parse's theoretical framework, I have acquired an enhanced understanding of what being a nurse means."

From the Paper
"Parse defines persons as "intentional beings involved with their world, having a fundamental nature of knowing, being present, and open to their world" (McEwen & Wills, 2002, p. 195). The human being freely chooses meaning in every situation, and assume responsibilities for their decisions. The person is not only becoming but creates becoming and is free to choose specific ways of becoming. Health is "a way of being in the world...the living of day-to-day ways of being" (McEwen & Wills, 2002, p. 195). In Parse's view, health is a matter of "quality of life experienced and described by the person" (Relf, 1997, p. 3). The patient is the person who experiences or does not have quality of life, can best articulate the meaning of quality of life, and can describe what it should involve."

From the Paper
"Parse's theory of human becoming theory is a means for providing structure for ways of thinking and being with patients as they create their own quality of life. Human becoming theory is concerned with lived experiences of health (Kelly, 1999). The holistic approach is essential since lived experience, meaning, and understanding all form various aspects of the unitary process of human life (Kelly, 1999). Parse's concepts guide nursing for being present with the patient as they illuminate meaning, synchronize rhythms, and co-transcend with the possibles. Hope is based in these possibles: the person is moving beyond the present toward the unknown. My life experience will illustrate how Parse's theory helps the person to maintain hope and to achieve transformation. For Parse, the central idea is that the person is expert for their lives and they always have choices. The person is involved in a search for meaning and is capable of achieving transformation."

Abstract
Nursing theorists have been popular in nursing since the days of Florence Nightingale and have continued through to the present. This paper highlights Rosemarie Parse's theory of human becoming as well as Jean Watson's theory of human caring. This is then followed with a discussion of how their theories and philosophies are similar, how their theories are dissimilar and finally what other theories in nursing are related to each of these theories.
From the Paper
"It is considered beyond the scope of the paper to discuss each theorist's theory in detail. Rosemarie Rizzo Parse's theory Rosemarie Parse's theory of human becoming is built on concepts that are considered inter-subjective, relying on an interpersonal environment from which to create meaning and allow for personal growth (Bjorklund, 2000). Parse offered this theory in 1981 as an alternative to the standard bio-medical model emphasized in the 1960s and 1970s (Cody, n.d.). "

Conclusion
From the Paper
"As a result of Parse's theory, I am convinced that the goal of my own nursing practice should be enhanced quality of life for each patient as they perceive and experience that quality of life. The person is an active participant whose goal is not related to either health or illness but quality of life. Because of Parse, I will never set myself up as an expert for the patient. Parse's theory has been tested through research and found to be most beneficial with AIDS patients. The theory is applicable for any group of patients. In my own practice, Parse's theory is will be very useful for providing direction for such nursing actions as developing a therapeutic relationship with each patient as well as with such interventions as health teaching, counseling and, above all, exploring meaning with patients. The theory of human becoming is most valuable since it provides a clear structure for approaching and being present to patients while they struggle with the issue of quality of life in their lives."

Abstract
This paper takes a look at Chagas' disease, African sleeping sickness, and the leishmaniasis, all deadly diseases caused by mere parasites. What makes it so frightening is that these parasites are common bloodsucking insects such as the tsetse fly and the 'kissing bug'. This paper also analyzes the DNA make up and possible methods of eradication.
From the Paper
"As a matter of fact, some findings were released recently, and these stated the DNA sequencing of the three parasites 'Trypanosoma cruzi, 'T. brucei' and 'Leishmania major'. These three parasites are collectively referred to as the 'Tritryps', and there is neither any vaccine available against them, nor does there exist any suitable treatment for the diseases caused by them. The medicines that are available today as a part of the treatment for the patient afflicted with the disease are generally quite toxic and extremely difficult to administer, and more often than not, according to a report by the World Health Organization, it will not be successful. The older treatments, dating back to the 1940's, were based on arsenic and antimony, and today, there are different methods, but with extremely limited efficiency. (Parsing Parasites: genomes of three tropical parasites are sequenced)
Geneticists today have discovered many thousands of mutations that are responsible for various diseases in human beings, and among these the so called 'founder mutations' stand apart. "

The Four Central Nursing Concepts, 2008.
This paper focuses on the nursing theories of Dorothea Orem, Jean Watson and Rosemary Rizzo Parse.

Abstract
The paper presents an overview of the central concepts of nursing by numerous nursing theorists. The paper focuses on the theories of Orem, Watson and Parse. The paper points out that a single nursing theorist is usually insufficient for addressing complex patient needs and diverse situations.
From the Paper
"Nursing theorists provide the entire foundation of nursing knowledge, and their theoretical frameworks offer an approach and guide to nursing. Every nursing theorist uses four metaparadigm concepts or common themes of nursing: person, health, environment, and nursing. All nursing theories reflect the metaparadigm concepts of nursing as well as a holistic view. Along with skills, nurses use these paradigmatic concepts to gain a holistic perspective which focuses on nursing as a discipline and science rather than on other disciplines such as biomedicine (Arslanian-Engoren & Hicks, 2005)."

Abstract
Both Rosemarie Parse and Jean Watson added important theories to the realm of nursing. This paper examines similarities and differences by critiquing their theories. This paper relates concepts and ideas from these theories which are important to the profession of nursing. Jean Watson created significant philosophies on the idea of caring, while Rosemarie Parse made important contributions to nursing through her theories on human becoming.
From the Paper
"Although seemingly quite different, the theories of Watson and Parse have some notable similarities. Both Watson and Parse has a fundamental view on how nursing should carry itself in its domain. Parse's list of essential practicing of the art of nursing is congruent with Watson's theoretical assertions in her human science theory. While both theorists use verbiage and definitions that can be complex, both theorists are grounded in their beliefs of how individuals experience is bettered by a compassionate way."

"The Map", 2005.
This paper discusses the poetic style of Elizabeth Bishop in her poem "The Map".
2,080 words (approx. 8.3 pages), 0 sources, $ 65.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that Elizabeth Bishop, who died in 1979 and was one of the most honored poets of her time, illustrates the cold and frozen North of her Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia heritage in her poem "The Map". The author points out that parsing a poem is like dissecting a butterfly to see what makes it flutter: "The Map" is the poet's guide for our imagination; no more; no less. The paper relates that Bishop's physical frail frame expanded in her mind and captured the essence of a land about which she could only dream, but "The Map" is no romantic fantasy rather a shrewd, sparse, straightforward account of the land of the North.
From the Paper
"Poets are, it must be argued, different from novelists or scientists or philosophers, who tend to try to surpass one another. Poets stand alone. They write what they see and what they feel. They owe no allegiance to history. Only the history of their own lives, as it invests their memories, as the Newfoundland landscape must have stirred memories in Elizabeth Bishop. Her voyages are in her poetry. Her ticket stubs are images, torn apart and repaired."
