The spouse of a patient recently diagnosed with terminal cancer has voiced concerns about her ...

The spouse of a patient recently diagnosed with terminal cancer has voiced concerns about her husband's continual denial of his disease. What should the nurse consider when planning a response to this concern?
1. It may be helpful for the patient's emotional state at this time to be in a state of denial.
2. Denial is abnormal and the patient needs to have a consultation with a therapist.
3. It will be helpful to plan an intervention to force the patient to acknowledge his disease.
4. There is a limited amount of time left in the patient's life so the denial must be rapidly worked through.
