In 1969, Elisabeth K�ubler-Ross first identified the stages of dying in her transformative book On Death and Dying. Decades later, she and David Kessler wrote the classic On Grief and Grieving, introducing the stages of grief with the same transformative pragmatism and compassion. Now, based on hard-earned personal experiences, as well as knowledge and wisdom earned through decades of work with the grieving, Kessler introduces a critical sixth stage. Kessler argues that it's finding meaning beyond the stages of grief most of us are familiar with (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance) that can transform grief into a more peaceful and hopeful experience. In this book, Kessler gives readers a roadmap to remembering those who have died with more love than pain; he shows how to move forward in a way that honors loved ones. This is the sixth stage of grief: meaning. Kessler shares the insights, collective wisdom, and powerful tools that will help those experiencing loss.
