There's a lot of sadness going around. Can i ask for prayers for my friend's husband who has had a recurrence of leukemia. He had gone through the full course of treatment a few years ago and was doing ok, but apparently back in December they found that the blood was not right again. She is just telling me this now and i am heartsick for her. This is complicated by the fact that he WILL NOT let their three girls know about it. he has insisted that it be kept from them from the start. So now he has the treatment, goes to a hotel for 2 nights until he is well enough to come home and they think he's on a business trip. The girls are 24, 22, and 16, not little kids. If it were me, he could have killed or divorced me for it, but i would have told them.

That’s sad.
The girls are old enough to know, too.

Oh I agree - those girls need to have time to adjust and spend time with him in case he doesn’t survive this. They will be so hurt if they don’t get that choice and he will be gone so they will blame their Mother. Tell her that - their relationship will suffer because they won’t feel they can trust her or will internalize and say she didn’t trust them enough
