[quote=Anonymous]I had something quite similar happen a few years ago (different organ but 90% cure rate via surgery). I was honest with my children about having to go into surgery but I didn't drop the C word. I wanted to wait and find out what the results were before I had to admit to cancer. Thankfully, the surgery did work. They were able to remove everything and, although I lost part of the organ, I'm living a very good life. My kids never knew. As they get older (they were 9 & 7 at the time), I might tell them if it's relevant to a conversation. [/quote]
