Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Although it is certainly more common to have friends who are similar to ourselves in many ways, those most likely to be called on and respond are those in close environmental proximity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Although a person might choose to do any of these, the most helpful action over the long term is to join a support group with persons having the same diagnosis for mutual learning, sharing of resources, and support. Religious leaders could also be helpful, but many people do not have a religious leader.
