  1. Completed her grief work successfully
  2. Determined she is ready to terminate the support group
  3. Reached the phase of reestablishment
  4. Replaced old memories with new ones

Question 2

  Although those around him were visibly saddened, he smiled and remained in control. He re-fused support from friends, stating, I can handle anything that comes my way. The client's be-havior is an example of:
  1. Conflicted grief
  2. Inhibited grief
  3. Distorted grief
  4. An expected male response to loss

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Reestablishment is the gradual decrease in symptoms. There are not enough data to support op-tions 1, 2, or 4.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
The statement indicates inhibited grief that is characterized by minimal emotional expression of grief. There are not enough data to support option 1, conflicted grief, which involves ambiva-lence in the relationship with the departed. Distorted grief (option 3) is not one of the standard types, and there is no expected male response to loss (option 4).

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
