 Denial is a person’s initial reaction to any loss.  At this stage a person has experienced a significant loss but does not believe the loss occurred.

 The “Why Me?” stage.  During this stage the person may be critical, demanding, or uncooperative.

 The reality of the loss sets in and anger subsides at this stage.  This is the stage when a person my pray or promise to change if the lost person or object can be returned

 This stage is marked by silence and withdrawal.  All the earlier feelings of disbelief, anger, and rage are replaced with a deep sense of sadness.

 This is the final stage.  This stage involves a sense of power that allows the person to accept the loss and move on.  Stages of Loss Stages of Loss  Sprinkles Sprinkles  Giraffe Giraffe
