http://www.nybooks.com/daily/2018/04/02/deaths-best-friend/ I was fortunate enough to see Elizabeth years ago for her talk about death and dying. My supervisor and friend Nancy took me to this lecture on the stages of dying. Nancy and I worked at the Yaquina Care Center in Newport. This lecture changed the way I looked at death and to this day explains why people, as they die, are processing and going through distinct phases.
