Honesty coupled with sensitivity and a warm hug is always best. They will thank you for this when they're older. My sincerest condolences on your loss.

Hiding from the truth does not make the truth any easier to swallow. You made the best decision you could in difficult times. The decision to end a life is never easy: man or animal.
