Found this on a Facebook group but literally scanned it, though it odd and posted it here as I'm real busy and have to go offline for a bit.

Let me know if its a good piece of evidence or not.

Not sure if I did link right so it can be found if you search for:
Michael Jackson Hoax Death (in groups)
Then click on photos
Then its the letter with TMZ in big letters in the corner.

Random MJ Talk / 5 stages of grief (this may/may not help?)

« on: November 28, 2009, 01:38:36 PM »

Hi all,

I thought I'd post something I studied as a student nurse a few years back. It is a model of grief by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. It helped knowing about this initially as I was acutely aware that until the 'memorial' I was in complete denial and very clinical about the whole thing. I even hit anger next (before I realised a few people could smell a rat.....fast forward to thousands presently) because at that point I believed he'd died from using a hospital-based drug for insomnia (foooooooolish moi).

It is no way a uniform ideal of how and when we should feel certain emotions as although there are 5 stages they can hit you in a different order, you can skip stages and/or have stages overlapping simultaneously!

Its just a handy thing to know as even though we all believe, we do sometimes slip into our grief and what-ifs.

five stages of grief - elisabeth kübler ross
EKR stage Interpretation
1 - Denial Denial is a conscious or unconscious refusal to accept facts, information, reality, etc., relating to the situation concerned. It's a defence mechanism and perfectly natural. Some people can become locked in this stage when dealing with a traumatic change that can be ignored. Death of course is not particularly easy to avoid or evade indefinitely.

2 - Anger
 Anger can manifest in different ways. People dealing with emotional upset can be angry with themselves, and/or with others, especially those close to them. Knowing this helps keep detached and non-judgemental when experiencing the anger of someone who is very upset.

3 - Bargaining
 Traditionally the bargaining stage for people facing death can involve attempting to bargain with whatever God the person believes in. People facing less serious trauma can bargain or seek to negotiate a compromise. For example "Can we still be friends?.." when facing a break-up. Bargaining rarely provides a sustainable solution, especially if it's a matter of life or death.

4 - Depression
 Also referred to as preparatory grieving. In a way it's the dress rehearsal or the practice run for the 'aftermath' although this stage means different things depending on whom it involves. It's a sort of acceptance with emotional attachment. It's natural to feel sadness and regret, fear, uncertainty, etc. It shows that the person has at least begun to accept the reality.  

5 - Acceptance Again this stage definitely varies according to the person's situation, although broadly it is an indication that there is some emotional detachment and objectivity. People dying can enter this stage a long time before the people they leave behind, who must necessarily pass through their own individual stages of dealing with the grief.

Hope this helps.
