This is an encapsulation of one person’s travel through time, not necessarily meaningful in its portrayal or its outcomes but in its own small way leaving an imprint in the sands of time. It is a personal record of one who has lived through and, in some small way, participated in a few of the events that have shaped our history. It also encapsulates events that embrace family, friends, and acquaintances. At the same time, it touches on those events and locations that have also had both major and minor impacts on the world stage, in an age in which we have witnessed incredible changes in technology across a wide area of human endeavours. Developments that have seen man leave his own environment for the first time to venture into the space that lies beyond—something that our predecessors could never have dreamed possible. Changes that have also brought economic and social improvements and yet have not resolved the issues of human conflict or our responsibilities as custodians of the planet.

There are more than 22 million refugees worldwide and another 65 million who have been forcibly displaced. But who are these people?

As a young ER nurse in Boston, Roberta was stopped cold by stark images of big-bellied babies with empty haunting stares in the news. She called the aid organization featured in the news story and within two months, she was on her way. Roberta would soon learn that world into which millions of children around the globe were born was fraught with unspeakable horrors. The only certainties for so many of these children were, and remain to this day—disease and devastating injury.Footprints in the Dust reveals the humanity behind the headlines, beginning where the newscasters end their reports. The people we meet within this riveting book are neither all saints nor all sinners—and impossible to forget.

The central idea in this book is the concept of balance composed of five universal elements that support survival of all human beings—adaptation, equilibrium, homeostasis, needs and health—and how it applies to health and nursing. Behavior is the key that unlocks these elements through interaction with the internal and external environments. The concepts of imbalance, personality, open systems, behavior pyramid, culture, technology, and physical forces are viewed as influences that affect behavior. Using existing related concepts and theories derived from the social, nursing, and physical sciences, a novel view of the health-illness continuum was conceptualized. From this theoretical background, a new nursing model was developed – the Balance-Health Nursing Model (BHNM) using balance as a framework in the nursing process. A Balance Health Assessment Tool was developed with a sample case study to demonstrate its use. This view of balance offers an alternative approach to health and illness and the role of nursing and other health care professionals in their practice settings.

Nursing is such a fulfilling delight, yet is plagued with stress and frustration mostly because of administrative, economic and political problems. This booklet highlights the fulfillment and joys in the field of nursing, yet also radically pinpoints some areas of needed change. Most issues are presented in poetic forms with a touch of humor to arouse interest as well as to stimulate the thoughts of the readers. Some articles feature the themes during nurses week which is usually celebrated May 6-12. Some readers who are not in the medical field might not understand everything fully but will be able to follow and appreciate what is being presented. . Some nurses may find it mere criticism and somewhat disturbing. Others might want to scoff at the author and wonder ’how daring’. Realistic nurses may welcome the ideas presented and agree, or smile, as the readings arouse the memories of their experiences.
