Dear Angela
I understand the perspective you are working from.  I am currently writing up
my MA about how
the dying individual is negotiating their lives during the time they are dying
given that people can
have a productive and creative time because of palliative care and keen
prognosis.
I agree that in my readings so often a negative stance is taken about the
"grief, sadness, and anger" felt by the mourners or dying as if these feelings
are to avoided because they are "bad/harmful".  Rather than embracing the fact
that these emotions exist, that they are a powerful force and that they have a
beneficial effect for the individual over a period of time.
I would love to hear more about your study.
Sorry I have not heard of the reference.

There are two tragedies in life. One is not to get your heart's desire.
The other is to gain it.
