: : Do you think it was justified to lie or would you have handled the
: : situation differently?
: In the last case i couldn't lie but in this situation i think it is justified to lie due tho the wife health problem, if they would tell he that he husband is death and didn't waited for her to see him for the last time, she would probably have a heart attack and goes right along with him. So if i was in this situation i would lie to her to give her some peace of mind.
It is very diificult for me to lie to a family
member whose loved one has passed away. I have had
to tell the family during my career only once
and it was the most difficult thing that I\
ever have done.
