Question 1 it cud be Denial but he is not denying the fact that its teriminal so not sure but abt Transference cud be that too. Cos its not Sublimation, Intellectulization, or Rationalization. Q 2 its A)

NNL transference is entirely not connected to this situation....so it's denial, OK? AAAAAA. for both.

about the mother and child situation,my guess would definitely be the one where the dr decides showing pictures to the child as the other two are completely ridiculous.

The first one??? I think denial because the pt said that you and me can "beat" the cancer....now , I'm not familiar with the american slang but what I know is that he is not understanding the severity of the situation..he thinks its easy to "beat" i.e. get rid of the cancer..... but we all knw how aggressive small cell CA is... I dont have the answers..

So no pictures right? I would NOT feel comfy showing ogrish.com to a child!! come on! On the other hand it confuses that Kaplan always says "you have to deal". In this case, his father could not agree with the doc's methods. So, dad can take care of that.
