The 80-year-old man with diabetes has had vascular problems with his feet and lower legs for 10 years and is scheduled for a left below-knee amputation. The remark by the patient that indicates an understanding of the procedure is:
1.   “I am glad this amputation will end my diabetic problems.”
2.   “After they have hacked my leg, I won’t be able to drive.”
3.   “If this heals well, how long until I get a prosthesis?”
4.   “I hate that my left knee is going to be useless without a foot.”


This is for my medical nursing class
