“…A person thinking about the death of another can relate it to the difficulty of seeing the suffering and the disintegration of the other, and to feelings of helplessness, fear of what comes after death, of judgment, divine punishment, rejection and the loss of the relationship. There is also the fear of extinction and the threat of the unknown (12) . Among the strategies used by families to reduce the suffering, is the mutual help with basic chores of the patient's daily life for promoting and maintaining care in the initial phase.…”

Objective: To understand the life experiences that favor the plenitude and transcendence of the elderly being. Method: Qualitative study of hermeneutical phenomenological approach. It was conducted from January 2014 to March 2017 in two social groups for seniors. Selection of participants was by intentional sampling with information saturation. Characteristics of participants: men or women aged 60 years and over. Data collection through a phenomenological interview. Study in compliance with the General Law of Health, Subject of Health Research and the Declaration of Helsinki. Analysis through the Heidegger's hermeneutic circle: Pre-understanding, understanding and interpretation. Results: Units of meaning arose. Ontologically, seniors are revealed in their historicity and temporality, emphasize fear and anguish in their daily life, and fall into a feeling of nothing with the need to be authentic that is achieved through care. This understanding of the being is transcendence, and its manifestation is enlightenment. Conclusion: Transcendence is favored by care in the life cycle. Nursing as a science of care can promote actions that facilitate the reach of the encounter of seniors at different stages of their lives.Life experiences that favor the plenitude and transcendence of the elderly being: a phenomenological-hermeneutical study* Experiencias de vida que favorecen la plenitud y trascendencia del ser adulto mayor: estudio fenomenológico-hermenéutico Experiências de vida que favorecem a plenitude e transcendência do ser adulto idoso: estudo fenomenológico-hermenêutico

It should be emphasized that in Brazil, educational proposals aimed at the teaching of thanatology are still scarce in universities, hindering to confront everyday practice with death and dying [11].…”
