“…In Laurel's words: "I try to make my prose informed by poetic choices, where line breaks might be...and where the reader can say, I know the next sentence...With the poems what I wanted instead of narrative looking like poetry, was for the poetry itself to become a narrative, moving from 'for better to worse'." (Ellis & Richardson, 2023; Paraphrased from an interview at International Symposium on Autoethnography and Narrative, January 5).…”

“…I'm more aware of a deep place within myself…The poems seem not to be about survival but about going beyond, regenerating, going somewhere else, to think about death, afterlife, and so on."

Surviving Laurel Richardson’s Whirlwinds: “Being With” Loss and Grief

International Review of Qualitative Research

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This essay responds to Laurel Richardson’s book, A Story of a Marriage through Dementia and Beyond: Love in a Whirlwind, and to her poetry, “For Better or Worse,” which is included in this issue of International Review of Qualitative Research. The author describes how she is affected by the poetic and story forms of telling. Through reading and rereading, analyzing and interpreting these texts, she notes parallels between her and Laurel's experiences of loss and how they story their sorrow. Laurel’s descriptions resonate with her, reminding her of her own grief and providing a feeling of companionship--that we are all in this together. She suggests that reading and writing about loss as well as “being with” others in their sorrows can move us to incorporate grief and suffering into our lives without falling into an abyss of sadness, depression, and meaninglessness.

“…Because western foreigners in particular may be considered overseas experts, the Vietnamese may perceive business dealings with people from abroad as a fair opportunity to obtain education, technology, and innovative ideas. 81 Although large business organisations may have an awareness of the extent of patent laws provided by the Vietnamese government, patent laws which exclude individuals from accessing intangible information may seem selfish and bizarre to the ordinary citizen.…”

Addressing the cervical cancer burden in developing countries: Vietnam as a case study

Like most global diseases, the burden of the cervical cancer is borne primarily by women in less developed nations. In Vietnam, the government and certain private players are attempting to address the high mortality and morbidity rates of the disease. Vietnam promises to be an example of a relatively effective government approach for tackling cervical cancer that other similarly situated nations should consider in establishing their own cervical cancer interventions. As a developing nation, Vietnam's government must balance many, competing interests in implementing a public health intervention and encourage collaboration among various stakeholders, while also acknowledging and harmonising their individual interests.
