　　　　　The fear of death caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) was not only a suffering to the patients but also a torture to their family. This paper reported the nursing experience of a middle-age SARS woman who was infected by her son. The Gordon掇 functional health assessment guide was used to identify health problems. There were five major nursing health problems, including ineffective airway clearance, disturbance of sleep pattern, sensory deprivation, social isolation, and post-trauma response. Nurse-patient relationship was built up by positive caring attitude and effective nursing intervention. The woman was therefore able to improve her coping ability to her physical and psychological crisis. Because the disease is rare, this experience is useful as a reference for caring similar patients in the future.
