The [Elizabeth] Kübler-Ross model, or the five stages of grief, is the series of emotional stages that someone experiences when faced with impending death or other extreme, awful fate.
The five stages are denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance ...
I, also, experienced these 5 stages during my grief from the loss/death of my husband (extreme, awful fate) ...
When reading obituaries, quite often there will be a mention of the deceased fighting till the end ...
Many people find it quite admirable ...
