[quote=Anonymous]Well to the poster that thinks you don’t talk about kid’s cancer, I had a kid with brain cancer and did share it pretty regularly. I would definitely have shared it with any family member that asked — even if it was very extended. When your kid has cancer, it seems pretty weird to talk about their latest art project. You are entirely focused on their cancer. I do think OP should really revisit her ideas about what should be secret. My guess is that this toxicity between her parents may play into this. If you have years of “don’t tell dad about mom”, it can really feed a cycle of secrecy. That doesn’t mean that OP can’t tell her DH to keep his mouth shut about some stuff. But I do think you should think long and hard about passing on this secrecy legacy to your kids. I would 100% tell my kids grandma has cancer. And I would 100% not fall into this BS of telling my kids they cannot mention grandma stuff to grandpa.[/quote]
