A patient who developed signs of rejection to a liver transplant within the first week of receiving the organ is asking about the possibility of organ failure. What is the nurse's most appropriate response to this patient?
◦ "Although you are receiving medications to prevent the rejection, most people in your situation end up losing their new liver."
◦ "You are receiving medications to prevent the rejection. We will continue to do everything to treat the rejection and keep you informed of what is happening."
◦ "Please don't worry about rejection right now. You have a new liver, and we will give you the medications that you need to treat the rejection."
◦ "As long as you continue to take your medications to prevent the rejection, everything should be OK with your new liver. I will call the chaplain to visit with you."
