[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s between the girls. Thank you for being supportive and considering your daughter’s experience. No matter the choice you are listening to her and that’s so important. She’ll feel safer coming to you with complex emotions and the shorthand is built in with her grieving process.

Right now, I have a dear friend whose prognosis is unclear. The grief is not just after. Being able to talk to someone about the layers of sadness and uncertainty has been invaluable to me.

I’d like to add one more option for the tattoo. The first letter of each of their names. Maybe the friend’s on your child and the  opposite on friend. It’s a smaller design and might be a good compromise.  Or the first letter of a word that means something to them together. I like the idea they have but this is also smaller while being intentional.

No matter what is decided I’m so sorry for all. [/quote]

No, a decision like this is not just between the girls. If a dying kid wanted to know what sex was like and wanted to have sex with your kid, would you allow it?  It would create happiness in the dying child's mind and a memory for the healthy one.[/quote]

Wow.

Maybe step back? [/quote]
