Question

Justin has been told by his doctor that he does not have long to live. After some time of difficulty with this news, he decides that he is ready for death, and he wants to be left alone. Which of the stages in Kübler-Ross's theory is Justin experiencing?

Answer 1

acceptance

Step-by-step explanation:

The 5 stages in the model include: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. It was introduced by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross in a book called 'Death and Dying' which came out in the year 1969.

In the acceptance stage which is the last stage we hear such things as –"I can't fight it; it's going to be okay" I may as well prepare for it." Individuals therefore embrace mortality or death or the inevitable future for themselves or that of a loved one, or any other tragic event.
