Yes, age and because the tumor is high on her hip.

My sister just stopped to visit me at work and she brought her kids, ages 6 and 3. They love Toby so much!
It's going to be so hard on them too.

My sister is trying to decided if she is going to tell them ahead of time that Toby is sick and is going to leave to go live with Jesus soon so that they can say a proper goodbye. Or just tell them after Toby is gone.
Toby will be burried on my parents property, so they will have a grave to visit, maybe that would be better... just to tell them once she's gone and they can visit her grave.

Oh this is all so hard.....
Thank you all again for your comforting words.
