Answer:
That must be incredibly difficult for you. How would you rate your fatigue if you had to give it a number from 1 to 10?
Step-by-step explanation:
You understand the man is worried and as a nurse, you must be as polite as you can to your patients. The first option will be providing the old man with wrong information, because he has just given you an information. You need to build on the information provided and a question that would further understand the level of fatigue he is facing will be the best option. Showing a sign of empathy and then trying to find out the severity of the fatigue is the best option.
