She says most people are concerned about dangers that cause an early death, such as being hit by a car, but do not consider dying of natural causes or old age. This fact may be a cause for fear of death. Since most people relate death to a dreadful act, it is something to be feared. This is not the case for someone dying at an old age. For this person, death…

When a person thinks about confronting death, he or she thinks about how or when it will happen. Many people envision the actions the actions they believe they would take, but until faced with that fatal situation, no one can be certain of the behavior or the measures he or she will take. When faced with death, many prominent psychologists believe there are five stages a person endures. The stages experienced are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance (Gould). These stages are tools that allow us to identify what we may be feeling. Not everyone experiences all of these stages or in sequence.…

Kubler-Ross (2005) argued that there were five stages of grief, these being the following stages: 'Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance'. She believes these five stages of grief are part of the framework that makes up our learning to live with the one we have lost and feels these stages make people better equipped to cope with life and loss. She states that they are not tools to help us frame and identify what we may be feeling. But they are not stops on some linear timeline in grief. Not everyone goes through all of them or goes in a prescribed order (Kubler-Ross et al., 2005). A description of Kubler-Ross' five stages of grief are:…
