Jiangsu man died 40 days after fighting the epidemic, and his family kept his 80-year-old father in the dark. Should he tell the old man?

A man in Jiangsu died of the epidemic for more than 40 days, and his family chose to hide it from his father in his 80 s. I don't think such a thing should be told to the elderly. Because once the elderly know such a thing, it is easy to be at a loss, which is not good for their health. For the sake of the old man's family and health, I didn't tell my old father the news of my husband's death. When the old father asked about his son's specific location, the daughter-in-law just patiently comforted the old man and said that his son had gone to work at a new construction site.

Moreover, when she was with the old man, the daughter-in-law also made a video specially, saying that the video was only made to show her son how the old man's physical condition was. The old man didn't doubt his daughter-in-law's every move, perhaps because he trusted her more, so he always felt that his son was healthy and energetic. It's hard for any old man to accept that white-haired people send black-haired people. The old man is 80 years old. Once the old man knows the news of the child's death, he can't bear such a sad blow.

In the process of fighting the epidemic, the man eventually died for some work reasons. When the man's wife learned the news, it was too late for her to accept the news of her husband's death. But because I think there are parents above and children below, as a wife, I can only bury all my sufferings in my stomach. Can't let others know, the whole family choose to hide from the elderly is actually good for the elderly.

But when you think about it, in fact, the old people are a little older and have experienced a lot. Even if the news of the child's death is told to the elderly, the elderly may understand that the child is paying for his work. Everything can only be hidden for a while, but not for a lifetime. If the elderly are sick, they will want their children to stay with them, and then explain to the elderly that the children have passed away, which may make it harder for the elderly to accept the blow.
