Case Study Mrs. Jones, age 88 years, recently presented with rectal bleeding x 2 weeks. She is more fatigued than normal, pale and weak in appearance and has developed a significant cardiac murmur which was not present on her last well exam three months ago. She has declined any preventive screening such as a colonoscopy or pelvic exam despite a strong family history of colon cancer. A physical exam reveals a large friable mass extending from her recturm. As the APRN primary care provider, you recommend additional diagnostic testing, and have offered to talk to her son (age 62 years) and daughter (age 60 years). She declines further diagnostic testing, and absolutely forbids you to talk to her children. What is the best course of action?
