Develop a nursing diagnosis for this. Palliative Care Case Study Jonathan Rodriguez is a 25-year-old man with a history of refractory acute myeloid leukemia. He now lives with his mother and stepfather-his primary caregivers and who are Spanish speaking. Jonathan's primary language is English. He has shared that his Christian faith is important to his coping with his illness. Prior to this most recent admission Mr. Rodriguez received a matched-related donor allogeneic transplant, with his older brother as the donor. Shortly into his post-transplant recovery, Mr. Rodriguez developed nausea, anxiety, and insomnia. Mr. Rodriguez is on antiemetics, and an anxiolytic. Since his initial discharge he has became withdrawn, spending more time in bed arising from increased aching in his legs and arms. Nurse Thomson, his oncology nurse practitioner, requested that the palliative care social worker meet with him. The social worker has formed a therapeutic relationship with Mr. Rodriguez, who disclosed his anger at God, his fear of being a burden to his family, and his worries about how the family would manage after his death.
