five stages of grief.

The Five Stages of Grief are:

Denial:
Example - "I feel fine."; "This can't be happening, not to me!,"

Anger:
Example - "Why me? It's not fair!"; "How can this happen to me!"; "Who is to blame?"

Bargaining:
Example - "Just let me live to see my children graduate."; "I'll do anything for a few more years."; "I will give my life savings if..."

Depression:
Example - "I'm so sad, why bother with anything?"; "I'm going to die . . . What's the point?"; "I miss my loved one, why go on?"

Acceptance:
Example - "It's going to be okay."; "I can handle it with change"; "I can't fight it, I may as well prepare for it."
