A client was extremely upset about her prognosis. The nurse looked the client directly in the eye while holding her hand and reassured her by saying, You're going to be alright.
 
  You can get through this. The client's husband was also present when the nurse reassured his wife. When the wife died, the husband sued the nurse for breach of contract. On what basis can the husband win his case?
 
  A. The nurse should have avoided reassurance, because the client took the reassurance as a promise of the outcome.
  B. The nurse should have given better care to help ensure that the wife survived her treatment.
  C. The nurse should have read the wife's medical record to determine her prognosis before reassuring her.
  D. The nurse should have reassured the wife only when they were alone, without the husband knowing what was said.
