Assignment Task:
You are a member of the interdisciplinary team working with Barbara Lund, a 36-year-old woman recovering from recent surgery for a malignant lung tumor. Mrs. Lund has a supportive husband and a 2-year-old son. Mrs. Lund's husband states, "I am really worried about Barbara because she was quite distressed for about 6 months prior to this surgery over the death of her father. I fear the surgery may have pushed her over the edge". Currently, 2 weeks status post lung-resection, Mrs. Lund is beginning to ask team members about her prognosis and potential functional abilities. She says, "I remember my surgeon trying to explain the surgery to me, but honestly, I didn't really understand much of what he told me. I am a bit naïve when it comes to anything medical." Mrs. Lund appears quite anxious about the cancer diagnosis and about how she will be able to continue caring for her son.
