Dealing with Cancer and Childern |

Two weeks ago Ahlia asked me if mummy had cancer. This was 18 months after Rose was first diagnosed Bowl & Liver Cancer. Rose had been in remission for over four months, but she felt some thing was not right. She had gone in and did a CT scan on
the Wednesday and was directed to do a PET scan.
We don't know yet baby, mummy is doing a second scan tomorrow to find out what is going on.
On Monday we did the scan. Ahlia asked the question again. Dad dose mummy have cancer. My hart droped. Same answer, don't know until tomorrow.
We got the news that two new cancers have appeared. At the same time the we get a phone call from the school, Ahlia is in sick bay. When we arrived to pick Ahlia, the teacher advised Rose that Ahlia informed her, you (Rose) was getting the news of the cancer.
Ahlia we have to tell you that mummy dose have the cancer, but with treatment she will be ok.
Ahlia had been the first time and the second time. It was going to be rutine for her. Emotions in the house are very high with all that is going on. I have senced that Ahlia's emotions are changing.
Is there anything I should be looking out for?
