Answer to Question 1

C
The child should be reassured that death will not hurt because this is a major fear. The child should not be overly encouraged to discuss his illness. The child should not be pressured to discuss anything. The child should be told that it is okay to die, because children often feel guilty. The nurse should be honest and not deny that death is imminent.

Answer to Question 2

2, 4, 5
Feedback
1. The child may be asymptomatic.
2. The forward bend occurs because of the curvature.
3. The pelvis is tipped back and the shoulders forward.
4. Asymmetry will occur because of the curvature.
5. The abdomen does not have range of motion.
