Meeting Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Have you ever met someone who you will never forget?  Maybe you have met a few people like this?  Meeting Elisabeth Kubler-Ross was one of these memorable events for me.  She put words on experiences that were already familiar to me and many others.

Elisabeth is famous for setting out the 5 stages of grief  but these stages are more than about grieving - they are about life.  In response to people calling her the 'death and dying lady' on account of her book On Death and Dying, Elisabeth called herself the 'life and living lady' with glee.  Having had the privilege of meeting her I can agree wholeheartedly - allowing yourself to grieve your losses certainly helps to give the joy of life a chance to be felt.
