[quote=Anonymous]Just be honest. Tell him what you've shared here: that she will look different because of the cancer and the treatments she's undergone. Tell him that she is not expected to live more than a few months. Tell him that your heart is breaking because of how much you love her and will miss her. Tell him that it's okay for him to be sad, even in front of his aunt. Ask him what questions he might have. Tell him that it's okay to ask you whatever is on his mind and that you will do your best to answer them. If you have any pictures of SIL with your family, bring them this weekend. I'm so sorry your family is going through this. [/quote]
