An older patient is not concerned about having a brain tumor because the only symptom has been a slight increase in forgetfulness, and he has had no headaches. What explanation should the nurse consider about this patient's symptoms?
◦ The patient has the beginnings of Alzheimer's disease.
◦ The patient does not have a brain tumor because brain tumors are rarely present with cognitive changes.
◦ The patient does not have a tumor because forgetfulness is seen in children with a brain tumor.
◦ The patient could have a brain tumor even though a headache is not present.
