Paper Summary:

Dying of an illness such as cancer is a prolonged and progressive process. The progression is one of living with cancer to dying with cancer (Chapman & Pepler, 1998). Grief is not merely centered on death but is also anticipatory since it also takes place because of impending losses as well as changes in the patient abilities. Grief is a matter of adaptation to various losses and is reflected through a variety of changes which include behavioral, cognitive, and spiritual changes. This paper explains how the Roy adaptation model can be applied to the grieving process involved with a terminal illness since the persons affected are in constant interaction with a changing environment.
