We certainly don't talk much about death, and especially not to our children. I told my ten year old daughter that her grandma was soon going to die. Grandma was now in a Hospice.
"I want to go and meet her." my daughter said in a determined way.
I thought for a minute and then I said to her, "Honey, she won't be there in her mind. Grandma is not aware what is going on!"
Olivias eyes teared up, "But she will be there in her heart!"
How can you argue with someone that is right.
Emergency tickets to fly over to the States were made, and Grandma....wait....we are coming!
