Commit #18690An 80 year old non English speaking lady has been diagnosed with metastatic cholangiocarcinoma. Her son is her primary carer. He tells you not to inform her about this diagnosis because he thinks it will make her weaker, she won't accept further treatment, and will pass away sooner. His other siblings support this view, and the nurse in charge tells you they are threatening to sue staff who act contrary to these instructions.
Discuss the issues in the above scenario.
How are you going to handle the situation?
