  B) Your son will have these sad memories for the rest of his life; therefore, keeping him away is a good idea.
  C) Your son can handle a visit to see his sister with your help because children are emotionally strong.
  D) Your son will need preparation about the change in his sister's appearance but for his own grieving process, he needs to visit her before her death.
