Answer to Question 1

C
The nurse should encourage the child to eat anything desired. The nurse would not place the child NPO or on a strict diet. The substitution of a nutritious food or a cold beverage does not respond to the child's wishes. The nurse would also explain to the mother that this is a normal occurrence at the end of life.

Answer to Question 2

4
