My daughter was 12 the first time I was diagnosed and 15 when I had my reoccurence. Each time I tried to be honest with her and tell her exactly what was happening while reassuring her that I was doing all the doctors told me to do and would be ok. This time I let her buzz my hair down when I started to lose it and we too had a mother daughter moment. I try to stay as positive as possible for her. I think it is better to be honest.
