In 1969, Elisabeth Kubler Ross changed the way we think about grief.  According to her model, grief often has five stages.  The first stage is denial.  Followed by anger, bargaining, some kind of depression, and finally, acceptance. 

Earlier this year, Elaine McGillicuddy lost her husband to bone cancer.  She has experienced the stages differently—and created her own grieving process.  She’s embracing the death of her husband Francis as though it were not the end, but the next phase of their marriage. 

Producer Carolyn Barnwell shares the story.

Bob Crowley has always been up for a challenge.  Now, he’s famous for it.  Producer Carolyn Barnwell shares the story of this self-proclaimed “good ol’ fashioned Yankee” from Maine.  Crowley was recruited for the reality TV show Survivor at age 57.  After 39 days in the jungle of Gabon, Africa, he was the last man standing.  The win launched him into celebrity as the oldest Survivor winner ever.  Now retired from teaching high school physics, he aspires to make a career of being “Survivor Bob.” Producer Carolyn Barnwell has the story.
