Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The remark indicates anger that her husband died on purpose. She is not asking for help nor is there data to support an explosive response. She is not stating fear.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Chest discomfort is common with the bereaved person. Anorexia is more common. There is no research to support the connection with cardiovascular involvement. Insomnia is more frequent than sleepiness.
