What a nurse shouln't say...

no matter how well meaning she is-

"if he dies while you're at lunch, God meant for it to happen."

Thankfully we have left that part of the hospital and have moved to palliative care.

"God? You mean that superstitious construct embraced by 'Christians'?" is what you could have said. Right before you smacked her. Sheesh.

I am quite sure she meant well, but so many feel that silence must be filled with something, when the silence would be so much better.
