My 8 year old

Yeah I think that's the tough part knowing how much info to give them, but I guess I knew with my 8 yr old daughter who can read and hears everything, that I needed to give her a fair bit of info as she was making me cards from day 1 of diagnosis saying I love you and thank you for all you do for me. So even before she was told she was clearly worrying that things were very wrong with me. And once we chatted she seemed to be happy enough to get on with her stuff. My 6 yr old boy though is a different story. Ordering that book mentioned above will help though, I hope. Goodluck kee. Sam xo
