How do I tell my children that grandad is dying??

  • I think I'd mention in passing that Grandad is very poorly and then a day or two later, when he's had an opportunity to digest that information tell him that Grandad isn't going to get well.

    This sounds like the best idea to me.
    :p Proud to be a MoneySaver! :p
  • I second the one above, Just to maybe say that he's not been feeling well recently and that grandad won't be around forever. maybe he will meet up with and look after the bunny/ hamster etc. that has also left us.
    It only takes a second to say 'Thanks, you just saved me a few quid!'
