SUMMARY:

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared on March 11th, 2020 that we were facing the first pandemic of the 21st century. Given the threat to the human survival imposed by the virus, sanitary measures were adopted in worldwide scale to reduce its spread and preserve the highest possible number of lives. In Brazil, however, the results have been tragic. A little more than three years after the beginning of the pandemic, more than 700,000 people died in your country. As high as the number of dead people is the contingent of mourners for their loved ones. These survivors had either a total prohibition or a huge impact on the funeral rites as the contagious rate was elevated in the worst moments of the pandemic. The objective of this study is to comprehend the mourning experience felt by those who lost their loved ones due to the covid-19. This Hermeneutic Phenomenological research is inspired on the possibility of interpretation from the Hermeneutic Circle thought by Heidegger, and seen in Azevedo & Dutra (2013). An interview was conducted with three people (two women and one man). The analysis of the narrative interviews was based both on the understanding and interpretation of the experiences shared by the participants. Results revealed the meanings attributed by the participants to the mourning experience. That being said, the interpretations of the narratives suggest personal experiences that include the fundamental aspects of the feelings of fear and anguish triggered by the threat to both their existence and to their relatives due to the pandemic. The narratives about their state of mourning in the pandemic also showed experiences of disbelief concerning the death of their relatives; variation between the states of affliction and hope towards the recovering of relatives during hospitalization; impotence due to the impossibility of being by the side of their loved ones during hospitalization, which made them to have to wait for the daily medical report provided by the hospital. The study states some reflections about the mode during the funeral of being-with the one who died, taking into account the presence of sanitary measures during the whole event. Hopefully, the results of this research will contribute to the visibility of millions of Brazilians whose existential suffering seems to be neglected considering that, until the present moment, social policies related to mental health caring have not been thought towards those that are, undoubtedly, the mourners from the pandemic.
