Recently diagnosed and have a 10 year old.  He knows mummy is poorly but not what is wrong.  Likely course of treatment is surgery and radiotherapy. Gut feeling is that it’s better not to worry him with all the details.  Just wondered what other have done?

    Thanks for your reply.    I think it’s the right thing to do - not telling him - don’t see the point of upsetting him. 

    we have been very selective over who we’ve told as well.

    good luck to you too.
