Abstract:

In order to understand the possibilities and expressions of care, posthumous texts produced by five young people with cancer (between 13 and 27 years old) were approached as writing in destinerrance, whose meaning is adventurous escaping the author\'s intentions. This qualitative research in health is close to the Philosophy of Difference, supported by Derrida, which proposes an adventurous escapethe logical philosophical discourse and invites us to experiment with new possibilities of meanings, since no meaning is definitive.The data sources were physical diaries, letters and publications in virtual media (blogs/fanpage and facebook). For the analysis, we used a certain creative freedom to follow the paths/detours of the texts, following the non-watertight moments of: reading, translation and initial interpretation of the text; Distance; critical reading and appropriation without legitimacy, but recreation. Through writing, questions arisingthe experience about the relevance of sensitive and personalized care were made visible.Thus, the writings of young people wandering in wanderings can be read as a means to take care of themselves and the collective, constituting an adventurous legacy, whose possibilities of new meanings cannot be contained in a single way.
