a person’s felt experiences, such as aches and pains, that indicate the presence of a disease or a loss of functionality

Explanation

Hospice is care for people who are nearing the end of life. Its focus is on comfort, support, and quality of life rather than trying to cure the underlying illness, so choice C is correct. Choice B describes a terminal illness, not hospice care.
