STAGE ONE DENIAL
I
n this stage people deny the severity of there situation
I
t’s a normal reaction for rationalizing overwhelming
emotions.
A
temporary response that carries us thru the first wave of
pain.
STAGE TWO ANGERI
mmense emotion is redirected and expressed instead as anger.
A
nger may be aimed at inanimate objects, strangers, or friends and family .
M
edical professionals are often targets for this type of anger.
M
any times people will feel guilty for being angry which only manifests into
more anger.
STAGE 3 BARGAINING
I
s a weaker line of defense to protect us from the painful
reality.
E
xamples would be statements such as
“if we had sought medical attention sooner”• “If only we got a second opinion from another doctor”
• “if only we had tried to be better to them”
STAGE 4 DEPRESSION
T
here are two types of depression related to mourning.
T
he first one is a reaction to particular implications relating
to the loss. Sadness and regret dominate this type of
depression.
T
he second type is more subtle and in a sense more private,
between you and yourself.
ACCEPTANCE

ccepting the reality of the situation not everybody
reaches this stage .

his phase does not necessarily bring happiness to a
person.
