To Bear and Everyone else:
I thoroughly enjoyed the update on bear habits, an issue I had not
previously realized that I cared about. An issue that I am very aware that I
care about is unitary theory. I am editing a book, Unitary Theory, Research, and
Practice, a state of the art consideration of emerging unitary theory, much of
it inspired or derived from Rogerian science. I don't think we can explain
unitary theory completely using Rogernian science, but we sure can continue to
explicate and inform it.
A number of published members of this group have already signed on to
participate in the book. I would also like to extend an open invitation to
anyone whom I may have invadventently overlooked to be a part of this exciting
opportunity. If you have unpublished speculative musings, a model, theoretical
work, or research/practice findings, please e-mail me at sueprof23@yahoo,com and
perhaps your work can be included.
Bear, you've inspired at least one person today, a worthwhile achievement.

Once again one of those stories on the web that is not entirely accurate.
Some of you may have seen reports of the first bear sighted in Bavaria
since the malicious slayings in 1835.
While bears have tended to avoid Bavaria in planning vacations and
work activities, pending resolution of outstanding grievances that
have been slow to work their way through the courts, it is by no means
the case that bears have not been to bavaria or other areas in germany.
I do want to point out the bear side of the recent story has not made
it to the mainstream press and differs substantially from the reports
of violence against sheep and the destruction of a beehive.
First, bears always eat their meat well cooked. The suggestion that
any bear would eat raw meat is patently false. So the news item
suggesting a bear partook of seven sheep is denied categorically by my
associates in Germany.
Second, bears and bees have lived in harmony since long before the age
of modern folktales - engaging in mutually satisfying exchanges.
Suggesting that a bear would destroy the delicate balance of future
honey exchanges is likewise incorrect.
Now, on a less serious note, wouldn't it make more sense for we
Rogerians to have more enticing posts than corrections of malicious
anti-ursine news items?
There are, after all, so many interesting things we could be
discussing here, such as the impact of solutions to the nursing
shortage from the standpoint of their impact on bedside care from a
Rogerian perspective. Perhaps we might discuss the manner in which
health care is being financed and its impact on nursing care,
education, research, practice, and theory?
How, for example, is the environment we all associate with nursing
care changing over time? Is it going in a way we all consider
desirable? How do we who dwell in ivory towers and we who dwell in the
health care delivery system see what is happening?
Going back to one of the most significant events in my career as a
nurse... what might the answer be today to the question:
Can anyone explain unitary nursing according to Martha Rogers' Science
of Unitary Human Beings?
