If you were dying how would you explain it to a child who is deaf and the other is hearing?

Question

i am 34 and i am all my kids have..

Answer 1

You have 5 forms of cancer oh my goodness!

Im so sorry, uh wow explain it to them speratley my goodness.

How old are they? do they understand whats happening to you? May god bless you, your in my prayers!

Answer 2

Speaking from a Special ed teacher's  aspect, the best thing to do is tell your children separately. You should also look into counseling for you as well as for them. You stated that you are all they have, do you have any other family support? I know that you are probably scared and stressed, and even though you might keep on a happy face, the kids can feel when mommy is not herself.

I have a few books that you can probably read, as well as books to read to them.

1. Talking about Death.. Earl A. Grollman

2. Living and Dying... Robert J. Lifton

3. Life After Loss: Conquering Grief & Finding Hope: Raymond Moody

Please get some type of support for you and the kids, if you do believe in a higher being , pray and ask all of your friends and family for help and guidance through this.

Answer 3

I would explain it to them separately. I'm trying to picture having 2 kids in the same room like that and explaining it and it's just not going well.

Answer 4

Oh my God, honey.  Is that happening to you or are you just prepping in case it does?

How old are they and can the deaf one read?

Have you tried nutritional interventions and detox?  If you haven't, send me your address and I'll send you a great book I have.  I am literally in tears for you.  I want you to beat this if there's any way possible.
