The Millerton family is completely meeting affective function because the family members love, care, support, and respect each other. Also, they show their close relationship, connection, bonding, and understanding to one another. In this case study, we see that Sandy’s family is not emotionally close to Sandy and Oscar since she married Oscar. However, Sandy still wants to retain the relationship with her family by talking with them one or twice a year. In addition, Oscar’s sister, Ophelia and her family live in the same neighborhood, and both families visit to each other over the weekend meal and talk with each other twice a week. Moreover, Oscar’s parents placed $35,000 for each grandchildren for fee of college after discussion with Oscar, Ophelia, and their spouses. Also, Oscar and Sandy discover common interests, goal, and values and find that the relationship validates each of them. For example, a couple is overweight, and wants to work out by walking ½ mile most evening. They also enjoy tending their vegetable garden and cooking together for their family.

Introduction

Cancer refers to the uncontrolled division of cells in the body that defy the normal programmed body mechanisms of cell division and death after a certain time. Cancerous cells generally cause tumors, apart from those that attack blood cells – leukemia. These cells, which form tumors referred to as malignant, are able to attack nearby cells and continue the harmful process. This process is referred metastasis. Cancer is referred to the name of where it first attacked, regardless of where it then metastasizes. There are many risk factors that may cause cancer, including substances found in cigarettes, genetic factors among other numerous factors. (NCI, 2015). This handout aims to provide additional information to the general student population on breast cancer, for more awareness, and with a view of avoiding as many preventable deaths as possible.

Nursing Diagnosis

Several members of the family can be diagnosed with risk-prone health behavior. Jakub, as mentioned earlier, has particularly alarming sexual behavior. His job at the casino may not be making matters any better, since it gives him exposure to these people that he can have sexual intercourse with. Emil also has this problem, from his frequent short term relationships, to his fondness of fast foods. Darius also has an issue with seeking medical attention in relation to his bulging discs that cause him back pains. The house that the Orlov family lives in, a four bedroom split level home, may not work in his best interests since he will be required to climb multiple staircases regularly.
