My husband and I are both split on the dicision to let his 12 year old son see him after surgery.
My husband told his 12 year old son (my step son) about his upcoming heart surgery today. His mother got on the phone promptly and said that she wanted him to be there for it so he can see him after. I immediatly dissagreed. I dont even know if they will let him see his dad after the surgery but i dont think its a condition he needs to see him in if so. Im imagining that he will have all kinds of monitors and tubes coming out of him while in ICU and i know its going to be hard for even me to see him like this.Im really not sure how to handle this situation at all, but feel bad for feeling the way i do about it.
