Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback: Clients often set goals such as living until a certain time or to experience a particular event, and then they'll be ready to die: that is the bargain. Acceptance occurs when the person shows evidence of coming to terms with death. Anger may be expressed toward God, relatives, friends, or healthcare providers. Depression results when awareness of the loss becomes acute.
