The 60-year-old patient who has just been diagnosed with cancer of the stomach says, “I feel blank and numb.” The nurse’s best response would be:
1.   “Shock affects everyone that way.”
2.   “I’m sure you are considering what you should do now that you have cancer.”
3.   “Would you like me to bring you a sedative?”
4.   “What do you mean when you say ‘blank and numb’?”


This is for my medical nursing class

Patients who may seem overwhelmed need to talk and express their feelings, even if they are not sure of what they are.
