My Aunt died two years ago when my DD was two and seemed to make no impression on her at the time - they weren't very close. Now she has suddenly started talking about my Aunt and her death and deasth in general, going to heaven to see God/Jesus etc and gets very upset telling me she doesn't want to die. I try to be truthful but light - ie it won't happen until you are very old, heaven is a nice place, etc but she remains concerned. We seem to have this conversations a couple of times a day. No one else she knows has died recently and I can't think what has prompted this. Does anyone else have experience? Is it a phase? Should I lie to her and say she won't die or should I continue on the current tack?
