[quote=Anonymous]DH’s Dad died when DS was in first grade. DH was a bone narrow donor for his Dad so we travelled to the hospital for that surgery when DS was in K. We started discussing that Grandpa was really sick and that Dad was going to try and help Grandpa get better but it might not work. We tried to facetime regularly for time with Grandpa and so that DS saw Grandpa as he was changing and not be surprised when he saw Grandpa in person. We answered questions as they were asked and tried to give what we thought were appropriate explanations for his age. We are not a religious family so that was not a part of our conversation.
