Avatar f tn Anger and fear are part of that process. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross outlined 5 stages of grief. There listed below. Reading some of her thoughts on the process may help.

1032898 tn?1258598707 We often experience many of the stages that Dr Elisabeth Kubler-Ross identified for death, dying and transition. We lose the self we once knew and we grieve for it. If you are not familiar with her research and conclusions I suggest that you do some reading. It can be very helpful and provide you with some insight. I bounced between the anger and denial stages for years fully aware of what I was doing and where I was.
Avatar f tn Hi! I can understand how your husband must feel. I hope for both of you that in time it will get better. I am having a kidney removed for a large mass which has not spread *thankfully* to another organ/lymph nodes. This is not my first go round with cancer. I had breast cancer (caught early) in 1990. I was VERY angry for a long time. It was a time to come to terms with the fact that I am mortal. That someday, that I was NOT in control of, I would die.
667078 tn?1316000935 One way to approach the news is to ewquate it to the grieving process following the loss of a loved one. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross defined 5 stages of the grieving process (https://www.hdsa.org/images/content/1/3/13080.pdf). I saw a therapist for a year after I was diagnosed. We worked through the stages and I emerged in a much better state, both in terms of my disease and my life in general.
Avatar f tn Hi - IC I suspect your anger may be misdirected. You learned 3 months ago that you had an incurable, progressive disease of the central nervous system. That's a pretty big concept to wrap your head around. When I learned I had MS I thought I was dealing with my new world just fine.
Avatar f tn At first it seems like the light at end of the tunnel, is so far and out of reach, but with the right support the tunnel is not so scary. This is what I tell myself everyday. I say, "Rachel, live today like Cooper would want you to!" "Live this day to make all his Angel Buddies proud!!" Your daughter does not want you to be sad, she wants you to LIVE. Keep her alive by sharing her life with others, the more you tell the more will LOVE!!!!!
Avatar m tn Hello and welcome to our forum! I a sorry to hear of your diagnosis and especially the vertigo (It's miserable). Jane covered most of the material but I wanted to ad a welcome to you that we are hear to listen and to support...we KNOW what it s like. You will know doubt go through a variety of emotions as you learn to live with this disease in your body. It is a learning process and it does follow Kubler - Ross' grieving process of grieving.
1201072 tn?1289760591 t think I could handle what you are dealing with personally. Please take care of yourself and the kids. This has to be leaving a deep impression on your minds and spirits. So as I mentioned before, you all might find it helpful to talk to others who are dealing with similar situations. It is not good to bottle up these powerful mix of feelings as they can rack havoc on people for a lifetime.
Avatar m tn When Adam and Eve were created they were given the choice of obedience and life, or disobedience ( eating of the Tree of Knowledge ) and death. They were given no promise of being transported to heaven as a reward or the threat of eternal torment as punishment. There are numerous references in the Bible to death being done away with eventually, as part of the solution to all of mans ills and death is referred to as an enemy in 1 Corinthians. So this is my thinking on why we fear death.
Avatar f tn Hi, My 11 year old maltese was diagnosed with chronic renal failure in November '14. She is on Pepcid and blood pressure meds. A few days ago she was also diagnosed with Demodex and is on oral medicine to cure it. I am going into the vet's office on Friday for new blood work / check up. I am have read about other dogs' symptoms and I am wondering if there is any sort of progression with the symptoms.
Avatar n tn 7 Any of these things can lead to the cause of death. Patients with IPF can die from heart failure, respiratory failure, or collapsed lungs.
Avatar f tn for the baby and how much will effect him. I usually a very emotional person when dealing with death and I feel like a horrible person for not allowing myself to feel bad. What do I do???
192055 tn?1263555537 t went through the 5 stages of death. No matter what everyone who loses someone has to go through these stages..So my advice to you is to get out some pictures and just cry. You need to cry..it really helps. but i am no expert..
Avatar f tn I'm living it right now and to be honest, I am aware of 5 to 7 steps or stages of the grief process, but they don't matter, because you survive one day at a time ....baby steps, and not time frame, since everyone heals at their own pace. It's been 2 years for me and I do feel better, but I am not yet completely healed...it takes a long time.
Avatar m tn I am scheduled to have this surgery in a few weeks time. Waiting with apprehension... lots of questions and the world of unknown.
Avatar n tn Hi Gigi, there is a very nice site called dobson and ross, I surggest you have a good read and there is lots of it, covers most things, and you rent and download vids, that cover things you think your husband should know, and get him to have a good read to, so just google dobson and ross, there some great art work on there as well.
Avatar m tn What you are experiencing is extremely common, and normal. When we are dealing with the loss of a loved one, it brings our own mortality into sharper focus. The death of someone we love is unquestionably, in my opinion, THE most stressful life event we must all endure. And that stress can manifest itself in countless ways, anxiety being very close to the top of the list.
1059594 tn?1261323966 Joshua, You are correct that Chronic pain brings the same stages of death that were initially identified by Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. They are commonly now known as the five stages of grief. It has been correctly applied to other events in our lives. Certainly we all grieve for the former "us." What use to be. We miss the things we use to be able to do. I thank you for bringing it up again on the forum. When we reach the final stage of acceptance I beleive life gets easier.
