تمرين 3

Rachel was born to a Jewish couple and lists her religion as Jewish. Her father died when she was 10 years old and her mother remarried 3 years later. Rachel was legally adopted by her Italian stepfather, who was a devout Catholic. Although the family participated in Catholic- Italian traditions, Rachel's mother taught her many Jewish traditions as well, so that her heritage would be preserved. Rachel is now 58 years old, practices traditions from both her Jewish and Italian up-bringing, and is dying of cancer. You are the nurse caring for Rachel during her final days.
How might Rachel's culture affect her approach to death and the care of her body following her death?
