A parent tells you that 80% of children with the same type of leukemia as his son’s have a 5-year survival. Since another child on the same protocol as his son has just died, his son now has a better chance of success. The nurse’s best response is:
a.   it is sad for the other family, but good news for his child.
b.   each child has an 80% likelihood of 5-year survival.
c.   the data suggest that 20% of the children in the clinic will die. There are still many hurdles for his son.
d.   he should avoid the grieving family, since he will be benefiting from their loss.
