This paper describes thought of Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, who is well-known as an expert on the subjects of death and dying, or a pioneer on Thanatology. Further, according to her texts, the writer attempts to deal with issues surrounding the dying child, which come to the front by the description of her thought-especially the image of "butterfly and cocoon" symbolized Death as transition, and unfinished business. According to her texts, unfinished business has the following three aspects; First, the problem to be solved when death of one's own is approaching, Second, the psychological stiffness, and, Third, the negative inheritance which can make a chain reaction to the next generation. The dying child, as a human being whose death is impending, also has unique unfinished business. However, Kubler-Ross regards their siblings as more important, for their unfinished business, which extends to their subsequent lives, is more intricate and serious.
