[quote=Anonymous]We just went through this with my FIL but DS was 6. We knew it was coming for about a year. We made sure to do regular Facetimes for a variety of reasons. 1) It meant a lot to FIL 2) It allowed DS to see Grandpa as he was changing. So when we went to visit Grandpa in the hospital and at their home, DS was not surprised by how Grandpa looked. DS saw Grandpa at home about two months before he died. We did not bring him to visit Grandpa when he went home for hospice. There is a big difference between 6 and 10/12 but follow your gut. I could not handle a last visit to see my Grandma a week before she died. I just couldn't do it. I had been there a month or so before and that was hard enough. [/quote]
