A client's dosage schedule includes chemotherapy for each of 5 days and then no chemotherapy for 5 days. The client says, Why don't they just keep giving me the chemo? I want to kill this cancer and get on with my life. How should the nurse respond?
 
  1. This chemotherapy is so strong that you cannot physically stand to take it for more than 5 days.
  2. We need to give your normal cells time to recover from the medication before you get more chemotherapy.
  3. You should let the doctors worry about that.
  4. We need to let some of the cancer cells develop into the stage where the chemotherapy can kill them.
  5. The chemotherapy is not always immediately available, so pauses are taken to allow for more stock to arrive.
