Answer to Question 2

B
The abdomen should not be palpated before surgery. The child should be observed for infection, because the chemotherapy will cause immunosuppression. The child should participate in activities that are appropriate for the developmental level. Activities that could result in trauma to the kidneys are avoided. The family may be facing a fatal prognosis and will need an opportunity to discuss their feelings.
