My partner is on 2 cancer pathways at the moment - melanoma and bowel cancer. He has a gastoprophy, colonoscopy and CT scan booked for a Saturday afternoon later this month.
We have an 18 year old in the middle of her A Levels, and a 15 year old. Due to the stuff he has to do before the colonoscopy, and the fact the appointment is on a Saturday, they’re going to spot someone is going on. I want to protect them as long as possible as they’re both real worriers anyway, and especially as my daughter doing exams at the moment, what and how much do I tell them?
Obviously we don’t want to lie but until we have some firm news, is it better to mislead them?
