How Do You Prepare a Child When Someone
Close to Them Has a Serious Illness?
Children sense changes around them often
before they know what is happening. They
are naturally curious and usually will
seek out ways to satisfy their curiosity
if their questions and concerns are not
addressed. It is important to be available
and truthful with children to minimize
their fears and clarify any misconceptions
they may have. This booklet includes age-specific
responses and reactions that children
may have when a loved one is seriously
ill. Also included is information when
a loved one does not get better and a
child must be prepared to say goodbye,
tough questions they may ask about death
and typical grief related feelings.
