This is a verbatim taping of a group psychotherapy session for eight elderly female residents aged 75 to 88 of a proprietary Nursing Home (Kingsbirdge Heights) in the Bronx, New York City. Death in this setting is a constant life companion. Depression related to the suppression of the feeling of anger and fear of death is a well-known phenomenon. The reader is allowed to interpret and develop his own ideas, as the paper is presented without comment on theory or technique
