An older patient is not concerned about having a brain tumor because the only symptom has been a sli

An older patient is not concerned about having a brain tumor because the only symptom has been a slight increase in forgetfulness and no headaches. The nurse realizes that this patient most likely:
1. Does not have a brain tumor because brain tumors are rarely present with cognitive changes
2. Does not have a tumor because forgetfulness is seen in children with a brain tumor
3. Could have a brain tumor even though a headache is not present
4. Has the beginnings of Alzheimer's disease
