Coping with Grief and Loss: Guide to Grieving and Bereavement: "Kübler-Ross proposed these stages of grief:
Denial: “This can’t be happening to me.”
Anger: “Why is this happening? Who is to blame?”

Depression: “I’m too sad to do anything.”
Acceptance: “I’m at peace with what is going to happen/has happened.”"
